I always take out insurance for at least what the item sells for and in this case I'll be putting 450 insurance on it since it's worth that much to me to re-do if damaged/lost.
I would just add 4% to your price and not mention the fees.
Make your "local pickup" price cheaper.

Shipping costs are getting outrageous.
Unless you box, ship, and insure, on a regular basis,... you won't understand what a hassle this is becoming.
People that do this all the time, successfully,... must have alot of patience!

TOTALLY AGREE with statement "shipping costs are getting outrageous" I do not think "patience" cuts it... medication is more like it!!!! I just hope everyone appreciates the time and effort I (WE ALL) put in to safely packaging and shipping parts and also the battles that are constantly fought and usually lost within shipping companies.. Extra handling here....extra fee there... They are snakes! I have only had two damage claims so far and the "pit vipers" have already denied one...

BTW... That is a SUPER nice Dash Jonathan... I hope mine turns out half as good buddy! "KEEP TRUCKIN"

Re: Restored Tach Dash

Good point. Either way now I'm down to 420 shipped on this one and that will include any fees

sorry I missed this before. yes, this is the way all repro lenses are.

Final FIRM price of 400 SHIPPED

OR 450 shipped with a factory tach with restored face installed in place of the aftermarket tach.
