Oh no I just seen your comment.. lol.. My zip code is 77662, Vidor Tx.. Let me know if you have time to, if you can get a really good estimate so I can know if I will be able to bid again or not. Because I don't carry credit cards, I would get a prepaid and do it that way. I usually won't bid on anything unless it's free shipping because of that, BUT THESE BOOKS ARE JUST TOO AWESOME! lol..

parcel or media will be the cheapest. It's 19 for parcel and 12 for media I will pay half on either of these. If you prefer priority, it's 37 because they will not fit in a large flat rate, now i can split them up for you too into flat rate boxes. just let me know what you would like to do

I would look into ups. I've sent things that way cause it was cheaper. Do they fit into any flat rate boxes? These are just some ideas on shipping. I know it's hard to think of everything. Good luck with this auction. I am going to watch and bid if I have enough credits! :)

I have looked. It was about the same. I tried to cram them in some boxes, it didn't work.. I have them in the smallest one possible, but I am going to try to ship media, The woman at the post office here, is great at helping me get the best deal. at different weights and packaging. I will Take it to her monday morning, and everyone know. Thanks

i found them in a home that we bought. They are really interesting, but they are just taking up space.. We are cleaning out our basement and storage. :) 4 Kids and needing more space.

got it, at least you're getting great bids. i practically gave away two classic antique first edition books today that no one bid on:( i hope the winner treasures them like i did:)
