I might have a local buyer, if that doesn't work out and if i decide to ship, u will be the first one to know before i ship them to anywhere else.

Last time i shipped my tires, i misquoted the person person by $70, i got screwed cause i already promised a price to the guy.

I can't believe these will cost a lot for shipping, depending what you consider to be a lot of course. I just sent out a complete nitrous kit 2 days ago and total weight was 38 pounds and it cost $96 to ship. Sway bars aren't too big and they don't weight anything close to 38 pounds so I can't see shipping being that bad.

Location is a huge factor and so is the shipping company. For very lightweight items, international shipping, and sometimes within state USPS is best to use. I usually use Fed Ex for anything else, because they are cheaper. DHL used to be cheaper, but they only do international shipping now.

Also, it's not always the weight, though that does factor into the cost, but it's primarily the size of the package. Sway bars may not seem big, but try finding a box for them...it will have to be long, and that's what increases price. It would be cheaper to ship a heavier item that weighs say 50 lbs, but in a box that is say 14 in. all around.

You also want to package the item well so there is no damage, because what the people do to your package that you ship is sometimes unbelievable (kicking it around just for fun or because they are lazy). I've shipped plenty of items, mainly subwoofers and amplifiers. Just to give an example, a 15" sub weighing 40 lbs, double boxed and outer box being 16" all around was 10 - 15 bucks cheaper than an amplifier that weighed ~25 lbs, but was about 30" x 14" x 6".

Basically, I'd say the size of the shipment is the biggest factor, maybe it's the destination, but they are both up there. Weight has an effect, but not as much.
