I would also check that the seller is willing to freight before you do anything. They may not want the hassle of packaging them up and waiting for the transport.

I presume they are pick up so how are you going to pay? You wil have no Paypal or ebay seller protection if the goods go missing, they are not as descried or the seller packs you up a large box of fresh air

Many sellers will not allow a buyer to arrange freight as they have no seller protection against a bank chargeback if you were to use a credit or Visa debit card.

There is no way you should proceed without prearranging things with the seller unless it is such a small amount you are prepared to lose that much money.
