i haven't done rotors yet. not sure it will fit in a usps large flat rate box. that's usually how i ship oil back. But now with my UPS account, it's pretty much cheaper shipping stuff back via UPS ground.

I miss the days of free paypal return shipping
I feel like ive been under a rock... This is amazing...

I’ve sent air and cabin air filters back but not the oil and oil filter, etc. I may just do that during my next oil change since the oil, filter, etc that’s now in my car were purchased from FCP Euro. Did you put any kind of tape around the oil containers to ensure they didn’t leak during shipping?

I always tape the cap of the oil bottles and then I place each bottle in a plastic bag and seal it (I have a heat sealer). Then I bag it all in a garbage bag. There's no way it's going to leak out of the box. lol. After I get my store credit, I order my next set of oil and filter.

Good thing with store credit you can change to a different brand or order a different product.
