Advice on Ebaying some parts...

I start all auctions at 99 cents with no reserve.

That can be dangerous. I don't run a business on Ebay but I do get rid of stuff I no longer need. I used to follow the no reserve low price policy and it used to work pretty good. Lately, things don't seem to be moving as fast or bidding that high unless you have something very nice and very rare. But that is just my experience. To save on reserve auction fees you could just start the bidding at the minimum price you would sell the part at.

What I would certainly do is go to Fedex.com and set up my own shipping account. You can then print your own prepaid ground shipping labels at home and then all you have to do is drop the package off at a Fedex location. It is a real hassle standing in line and paying for freight. It is also much cheaper with your own account.
