So, how’s it going?

    Been looking to offload a few (mainly photography geared) bags, and was wondering how shipping would work for the bulkier backpack types. Better to just look at selling local for pickup etc for those maybe?

      I think you can get shipping estimates from most couriers by using calculators on their websites. Trademe also gives you estimates when creating a listing. Then you can let buyers pick if they are willing to pay for postage or pick up (if they aren’t too big to post).

      Beware trademe has discounted prices so you have to do the courier though their site to get the quoted shipping.

        Hmm, shoulve kept a few extra boxes from when we moved haha. Shipping costs don’t seem to be too bad, as long as the dimensions dont go past the threshold into the “bulkier” goods category
