    That's funny. I only got quoted $200 for something of the same size but 30 lbs heavier. It was also going to a business address with a loading dock though.

    I dont understand some of that pricing you guys are getting....I've had side skirts and a hood shipped from Japan for 135$ and we get shipments of metal thru freight companies at the shop and they are upto 12 feet long and weighing over 400# per stick and it doesn't matter if we get 1 stick or 10 the freight is still about 155$ per delivery.

    I have access to a loading dock if you want to see if that helps pricing.

    Business address and business accounts make a huge difference. UPS Freight gives us something like an 85% discount.
