Anybody in Santa Fe that could help with shipping a CL deal?

I've found a pair of Volants in Santa Fe on craigslist, but the seller said local pickup only. Anybody in Santa Fe that could help a jong out? I can send cash via PayPal or Venmo and will certainly give you some for your time in addition to the packing materials and actual shipping.

Or even just drop-off at a UPS store?

Do we even have a Santa Fe mag?

I’m in Santa Fe. But I’m leaving early Saturday morning for the holiday, back by the end of the month. If you can wait on that, I’d be okay with dropping them off at UPS. Packaging skis with bindings is a PITA IME.

There’s at least one other mag in SF that I can think of but he doesn’t post much. Taos has one or two, and maybe ABQ.

Edit: I just looked them up - no bindings, so that makes it easier, but I still don’t want to package them. I might be able to pick them up Friday.

Exactly; no bindings. Don't worry about packaging them if you can just drop them off at a UPS store and let me give them my info! I'll PM you.

If it’s not too late, I’ll be passing through Santa Fe on the 19th. PM me if I can help.

Guy pm’d me, he got the seller to drop them off at UPS.

It was more complicated. Seller took them to a UPS Store, but they quoted $900 for shipping. They also wanted $82 to box them. Um, no thanks, especially when UPS online said $130, and USPS said $80.

Then I remembered I have a good friend who grew up in Alamagordo and for some reason I was thinking she had family in Santa Fe, so I texted her. Her sister, who lives in Santa Fe, was actually with her for Thanksgiving and agreed to help out. I sent the seller an extra $30 to make a box, she picked them up from the seller, and it was $85 to send them USPS Priority Mail. They are supposed to arrive tomorrow!

Thanks to both Meadow Skipper and the_flying_v for offering to help. Let me know if you come through Anchorage and I'll get you beers!
