Shipping a bicycle
Can anyone tell me how to ship a bicycle in the box it came in? I don’t want to be stuck with extra fees or choose a shipping method that wont accept a package of the size of a bicycle.

It definitely looks too big for usps, so ups is a better choice.
I would not trust the eBay shipping calculator on an item this large. I would open an account at pirate ship.com. Click rates to get a quick quote - you need to know the weight as well as the dimensions. pirate ship has better ups rates than eBay, so I would buy the label there when you are ready to ship.
I think the shipping on your listing is quite low. I did a quick quote for 50x36x8 and 35# - it was close to $300 for Chicago to LA.
