It seems easier to quote price without any shipping. Negotiate that separately. Some of us do not like USPS for some valid reasons. Others might be biased against UPS or FEDEX UMMV.

It was too big for a flat rate box.  And, I’m not actually sure the flat rate to Hawai’i is the same as to CONUS.  At any rate, to be safe I now say “price includes shipping to CONUS.” I’ll negotiate individually with any Alaskan, Puerto Rican, or Hawai’ian potential buyer.
