I am planning on shipping a 4 bulb t5 fixture soon. What is the best shipping service at a reasonable price. The light is used and I am selling it fairly cheap so I don't want to charge the buyer an insane amount to ship, I was planning on taking it to one of the UPS stores and having them box it up.

Please share your wisdom my friends.

I just shipped a 6 bulb ATI PM from cali to florida through ups for $23
 
I packed it myself.Shrink wrapped the fixture and layed a foam piece over it and filled it with bubble wrap.I probably could have bounced it off the floor and made it hit the ceiling:D
 
You only paid $23??? what the heck man, that's insane. I paid $40 to ship my Outer Orbit like 150 miles!
