Whats the deal. Why wont some people ship to hawaii. If they do, they charge way to much. Its just as simple as shipping to anywhere else in the U.S.

Shipping there isn't that much if not the Same as anywhere else in the US. I've shipped many items there.

nktrnl · 08-24-2007, 10:30 PM

The question has been asked before, answers range from, If you rip me off I cant drive over and beat you up, too you are not in the US?

Shipping cost about the same if not just a little bit more. Thats got to be one of the biggest things that piss me off about living here.

It depends on the size of box. For small shipments in USPS priority mail boxes, we don't charge more to go to Hawaii. It is relatively the same price as to continential US states. Most crawler parts pretty much fit in a small USPS box except for bodies and full truck kits.

Now if it is a body or AX10 kit, than yes, there is an increased fee from USPS to ship to Hawaii and most people will charge extra to ship.

Most people don't know how many states are in the US. Let alone know that Hawaii is a US State. Since everyone on ebay has listed Hawaii and Alaska seperate everyone is afraid to see what the price difference is.

If you look up the prices from me here in WV to HI. Since I am shippng something tomorrow.

10 lb box to Hawaii
Zip 26105 to 96792

Priority is 25.05
Parcel is 16.17

Same 10 lb box to Cali
Zip 26105 to 90210 only zip off the top of my head!!

Priority is 25.05
Parcel is 16.17

Seems to me there is no difference. I would just say that most people don't know!!

pureadrenalin · 08-24-2007, 11:01 PM

MMM would that be my package? Just to let you know IMO I truly fell its the guys you decide to deal with and feel comfortable with. Then you will know who to deal with and not to deal with. Got some complaints but not many. I say u blame USPS more often but straight out PARCEL POST SUCKS.

I started this thread so people might realize that shipping to Hawaii is no different then shipping to anywhere else in the U.S.

chip cross · 08-25-2007, 03:11 AM

then why do people in Hawaii wana charge so much to ship something over here ? answer its just someone wanting to get over on someone else (((( I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT VENDORS ON THE SITE ))))

Badd · 08-25-2007, 03:20 AM

I have shipped to you guys . just like you have shipped to me . the cost is not much higher if any, than shipping across the states . I will buy , sell or trade with you guys anytime .

clodstall · 08-25-2007, 06:46 AM

I have shipped alot of stuff to HI myself. didnt cost that much if any extra.

hawnmt · 08-25-2007, 02:52 PM

If you use UPS or Fedex to ship here(Hawaii) there is a HUGE difference in price. On average UPS Ground cost 3, sometimes more, times as much to ship here than the lower 48. I usually only have this problem on Ebay where some people insist on using UPS/FedEx then I stay away from buying.

Kamikaze · 08-25-2007, 03:08 PM

Yeah it must suck to live over there........

mississippirocs · 08-25-2007, 05:21 PM

If you use USPS standard or priority its not that bad! I shipped to Hawaii and Ups wanted 148 bucks and the USPS priority was 62! If it is heavy you will get screwed either way!
