Coral shipping cost?

[r.bergonia19]

So I just called fedex and ask them about shipping live corals overnight and they said overnight shipping would be 118$! What?
I see people ship corals for 40$,50$ and 60$. Does anyone know why?
Or I'm just dumb? Sorry first time shipping corals.

Hi,

I am not sure what the going rate is ... sorry
Might want to try here, they are a sponsor.

I also believe there is a discount for your first shipment, can't find it but I think I saw at one point @Diesel provide to someone else, maybe he will chime in.

@ShipYourAquatics ... see if I can get the sponsor to respond too.

Anymore input?

There's a big difference in retail rates and those you get when you have an account with them too.

I'm just shipping zoas so can I just ship with 2 day shipping?

Overnight. Wouldn't risk anything longer. Like someone else said, look into signing up for a site that has an account that does volume. You will get it much much cheaper.
