[Boatanchors] Shipping: Gotta Vent

[manualman at juno.com]

I picked a ZIP in TX, 75173; then a ZIP in VA, 20108 and with your
dimensions and weight:
Standard Post (First Class) $29.60; Priority $37.80
If you check "FRAGILE", First Class is $39.95; Priority is $48.15.

If you pack it well, "FRAGILE" isn't necessary unless you like to spend
extra money.
