    Question about shipping offer

    I swear I saw a buyer who was offering free shipping for motherboards, ram, and cell phones...yet my searches are fruitless for who that may be now. Does anyone remember seeing anything like this?

    Five or 6 years ago, Gorven was covering shipping on monitors and laptops. Not now.

    "FREE SHIPPING" is not free anywhere.

    Some of our buyers will arrange for shipping and take the cost of shipping from your settlement.

    I 2nd PartTimeScrapper on using gorven for shipping.

    Pallet loads are the best way to go. Communicate with your buyer for the best way proceed. Once you get the hang of it you will find it to be simple and easy. 73, Mike

    There have been a few random buyers that offered to pay freight for certain items over the years but it usually didn't last
