Have you tried to ship a 1u server via ups with insurance lately?

We did get around 10 servers lately, we were charged only $20 per server

That's interesting. Perhaps it was a bulk shipment that came to $20 per server? I tried to ship a laptop last week and they wanted $18.34 to ship from PA to CA.

We have no UPS rates other then what people walking off the street pay. IF you have a UPS account I will bill directly to it.

I'm also willing to include a paid invoice for the shipping in the box the server ships as and refund anything extra paid for shipping.

That's a far cry from "with $75 in shipping". $25-35 seems about right, $75 seems rather high.

bear...

WoW... You know a laptop is about 3-6 pounds and the box is smaller then a 1u server right?

So your saying that a box that is the size of 8-10 laptop boxes and is over 300% more in weight then a laptop box will ship for less then $10.00 more?

I have no history of screwing people over. I said I will include a paid invoice from the UPS place to ship the server inside the box and refund the extra.

What more can I do here? Suggestions please!

Yes of course.
Just did a fast UPS lookup from PA to CA (~3K miles) based on 45 pounds and it came to around $50. Higher than I'd expected, but it's been a while. No one said you were being dishonest, just overestimating a bit.

$75 shipping is normal cross country,

$20 within state

Thanks for posting that Bear.

What that quote did not include is boxing and insurance price.

I'm already eating the $15.00 charge from Volumedrive to remove the server and take it too ups. Since 98% of data centers do not save boxes I'm sure I'm going to have to OVERPAY for the UPS center to box is all up.

I can not say this enough. I will REFUND anything over paid for shipping.

If you feel that my shipping is too high.. then make your offer for the server lower and if shipping is less then $75.00 then you got a steal!
