Cost of shipping large items.

I sold a piece of luggage, and eBay told me it had to be mailed priority even though I saw that another seller had shipped the same item first class. The box weighed about 4 lbs. I didn't write down the dimensions, but it was at least 20" x 15" x 15". I could have used a box that was slightly smaller, but not much. The item sold for about $26, but I had to pay over $50 to ship it! What could I have done different? I see other sellers offering priority shipping all the time, even for free, but it doesn't seem worth it.

Unless it's a Vintage or Designer Suitcase worth over $100 - don't bother trying to list it as shipped.

Sell it local pickup.
