when I sold my Taurus 1911.. I greatly underestimated the shipping and had to take the hit.

UPS or FedEx?

Air shipping is pretty ridiculous any more. I ship stuff on occasion from Ebay sales and one box cost me $157 for 15lbs to a place in Illinios. I only charged $100. I figured at 100 I might make 20 extra...bbzzzzt. Now I just do a flat rate of $11 a pound + $20 for overnight shipping.

Tony, how did you ship it. it is costly cause it has to arrive by 2nd day. you can go on UPS website and figure out pretty close to the cost depending on weight & zip code.

I shipped it ups next day air, taurus said it had to be shipped next day.

I guess if their is a warranty problem taurus picks up shipping back, i am just thinking what it must cost these firearm manufactures in shipping charges?

 

I could just imagine what a yearly graph would look like for their corprate expenses.

 

That remotely reflects our gun purchase prices..

I have heard 2 day ground from FedEx was OK to do.....maybe Taurus has certain issues with that

They can ship it back by priority mail.

they also told me to make sure it was unloaded, otherwise they have to notify ATF.

the atf says 2nd air on handguns, definelty unloaded, can not even ship ammo in same box. Us FFL's do pay shipping costs on all guns delivered whether it UPS, FEDEX, or USPS when we order guns.

trust me, the manufacturers do not pay that much on fedex. those guys have national contracts with them, and pay a fraction of what consumers pay.

What kinda gun tony and what was wrong with it?
