I used pirateship.com for the first time today…  (thanks to reading about it in this thread) 


Shipped a 28” echo guide bar to another member,  package details: 4.5 lbs 32”x4.5”x.5” from Va to KS

UPS online and in store both quoted $23.60 for ground shipping. 

Created a free account on pirateship.com, entered the same info and dimensions and ended up saving 36%.  It was $15.14 to ship UPS Ground.

Even deeper discounts for overnight or 2nd day shipping.  (60%-75% off)


For some items, shipping costs can certainly determine whether it’s even worthwhile to sell and ship vs only dealing locally.  It’s

definitely nice having discounted options!


Reading and sharing info like this is one of the reasons I love this forum!
