Did the seller state you will pay actual shipping if not then you will be paying usually more than normal. Sometime irregular shapes cost more to ship. I know that a stainless steel xpipe weighs at least half as much as the stock one since our model has 6 cats.

not sure of the weight but off the top of my head id guess 50lbs with cats probably 20 lbs with out and a box to put it in would be about 3'x5'x2' unless the colector extiensions can com of then about 1' in depth for the box

those are the measurements i put in on ups.com and the weight i used was 25lbs and it said like $18 for oversized.......i hope this guy is close to that, he hasnt emailed me yet. its a BBK off road h used, looked ok in pics for $50. seems like a good deal.

You should always ask for shipping quote before you bid otherwise you will have to pay what the seller states as he might charge a handling fee.

thats reasonable price for shipping. not bad. See a business like MT has an account and are discounted on shipping. Individuals like us are not so lucky.

I have a small computer business, going on 6 years now. FEDEX ground is the cheapest. You do get a better price if you have an account. Sign up on their website, its free.

Mine weighed 24lbs. And came in a box from mustang tuning free shipping. Ive seen some shipped no box, just a tag on them.

I bought a new never used off road Mac pipe from a guy on corral.net forums. He said $125 shipped anywhere in the USA 48 states. He never put it on his GT, and ended up trading for a cobra and it didnt fit. I paid soon as i got his paypal address. a week later i asked where's my pipe. He said he couldnt find a box for it. 3 days later he emailed and said he found a box. 3 days more he emailed me and said that shipping was going to cost too muc?? WTF. I checked and could ship it fedex ground for $21? to VEGAS. He told me he paid $200 for it plus shipping and he was losing too much.

Its not like i made the deal, that was his offer?? and im the only one that responded after 3 weeks?? he didnt have anything it would fit on, and no way was i going to pay more when a MT one is $164 shipped to me and they are only 29 miles away. Funny thing is i paid for it on sunday night and he told me he would ship the next day. So i drove my car all week, the following sunday, i put it on the Jackstands and took off the factory H pipe and figured it would be here Monday or Tuesday. 2 1/2 weeks later i waited. Then 4 days later he did Refund my money, SURPRISING!!!!

I ended up buying the mustang tuning off road pipe and glad i the guy backed out. It fit better than any other off road pipe ive ever bought. This is my 9th mustang in my life.

The 96 to 98 costs more for some reason than other years. I think one off road pipe is only $132 @ mustang tuning. Mine was $164 shipped. I saw some on ebay for $99 plus $30 shipping, They said they were blems thats why only $99 the rest were $130 to $150 plus shipping, Once i did the math, Mustang Tuning won every time.

Sometimes ebay deals dont work out. always some nuts and bolts missing. I bought some underdrive pullies and won for $50 shipped. Great deal till i found the longer Crank bolt was missing, of course after i took it apart. Mustangs have a very strange crank thread. 12mm X 1.5thread pitch X 80 MM for the longer one. I could not find this bolt at any automotive, or 5 different hardware stores. It took me 3 emails to March before they responded and said call them and it would be $13 plus shipping!!!

I called nutsandbolts.com "use them please", and told them how desperate i was and the car was apart, they had a $20 minimum which was no problem. They had the bolt. The probably amazingly hot babe on the other end of the phone took pity on me and said ill send this to you for free as a business sample. Just plug us on websites from time to time. She overnighted it!!! I love you Leslie, my hardware princess!!!!
