LARGE speaker shipping options???


I'm downsizing to a condo and need to sell my HT and stereo speakers which I plan on listing here (Audiogon). However I'm not sure about shipping. I have original boxes but have several large and over 200lbs each and 100lbs each speakers. I'm guessing these would have to go by a freight line. What is the SAP individuals are using and doing for this?

Just want to have all my ship(ping) in order before I list.

Lets recap

Your op said you had some speakers at 200lb and some at 100lb
So the 100lb ones CAN go by regular fedex ground.

The 200lb ones need to go freight and quite possibly fedex freight maybe the best bet there too.

Now as far as local pickup only goes, I have found that to be huge turnoff for buyers unless obviously they are within driving distance which usually means you may as well save some advertising money and just stick em on Craigslist!

I personally suffered trying to sell a pair of 220lb speakers with local pickup only and yes they sold but at a loss as to what I really wanted and took nearly 6 months to find a buyer.
FedEx will take by regular ground , packages up to 130lb each. But if you have one close to that weight you better make sure it is VERY well packed as it will not be treated gently!

Over this freight is it or try UShip.
