    Want: Ski box in boulder

    Anyone have a spare ski box laying around that I can grab in the Boulder area? Needs to be able to fit 180 cm skis with bindings. Happy to pay a few bucks or bring a 6er of your choice. Thanks!

    Easier and cheaper to ship - though it will take an extra 15m of your life.
    Grab that pile of Amazon boxes in the garage.
    Grab a roll of packing tape.
    Just cut the boxes open and "wrap" the skis/bindings with the boxes and tape.
    Looks skanky? Yes, it probably will.
    But it will work just fine and will probably be substantially cheaper to ship.
    And if you're driving to get a box, it will probably save you time and some hassle.

    And use pirateship and save yourself $40.

    BTW, using Paypal's shipstation has been really quite good to me, certainly comparable to PirateShip et al. Sometimes it's USPS, sometimes UPS.
    (And I shipped from PDX to the far NE earlier this year and was somewhat surprised.)
