That sounds great Coins1989. Yeah, I wouldn't expect Media Mail either.
I can't remember the rules about when we can send PMs. If that doesn't work, perhaps we can ask one of the moderators for assistance so we can communicate directly.

Well, good news and bad news. Good news is I have them broken out into three containers. I think you live in NC- shipping by UPS would come to $188.00. By USPS surface $104. Media mail- if I am lucky enough to get it will be $33. I am sure the PO staff will question/deny that rate. This is utterly horrific. I can see why you don't see many of these lots of old mags offered, it's cheaper to toss them, sad but true.
I could if you prefer send one box for now, maybe you can see if the intended recipient likes them enough to justify the additional shipping. It's a lot to pay at once when you haven't seen what you are getting. The heaviest box would run about $37 by regular mail.
You are a regular on here so I won't require payment before mailing. It'd be best to have the exact amount. I won't be mad if you decide not to move forward with this. I had utterly no idea what I would be getting into. No great rush, I at least got them out of the attic and can just stash the boxes out in the garage until we can sort this out. Let me know thanks.

Coins1989 - Just to make sure I communicated my intentions clearly (which may not have been the case), I am offering to pay you to ship them to YNumismetals Collector. I don't know what state he lives in, but I imagine the difference in cost will not be dramatic. How about we do what you suggested--send one box to YNumismetals Collector and we'll go from there. :O)

Sounds great. Can you get me a mail address for the recipient and I also need to either send you my Paypal address for payment of shipping or my mail address in event you want to send a check/money order. So we need to switch to a private interaction. Can you get me this information and if you run into issues sending private messages let me know on here and we can figure out what to do.One box weighs 16 pounds and would be $27 or so if sent to NC so not much different to where he lives. Just drop me a line when you get this and I will monitor on here meantime. I may have a better chance of getting Media rate if I present with one package!

I just mailed a box to Mark's young friend. I have perhaps enough left to fill three more boxes. Anyone interested, message me and I can fill a Priority large box and ship for the $18.75.
Come on, make my wife happy. :)
