*PLEASE NOTE: For ONE Microphone Cable, utilize the USPS Small Flat Rate boxes. The typical cost for one small flat rate box is approximately $10.50, which comes with $100 insurance. Additional insurance of $50.00 - $100.00 is approximately an additional $3.50 - $5.00 extra. This is well worth the extra cost.
If shipping more than one Microphone cable, to prevent shipping damages, please utilize the USPS Medium Flat Rate boxes. The typical cost for one medium flat rate box is approximately $17.50, which comes with $100.00 insurance. Depending on how many microphones you're covering, the additional insurance for $100.00 to $200.00 is approximately $5.00 extra, with this increasing an additional approximately $2.00 for each $100.00 added to the insurance. IE: You want to ship 6 cables with a value of $600.00. The medium flat rate box plus $500.00 insurance will be approximately $25.00 to $30.00.
