If I split it up, shipping cost is probably going to be about $200 to most of you who have asked me for shipping quotes. If I ship it by truck, it's probably going to be more than that. Unfortunately, I had no idea shipping was so expensive.

If any of you are still interested, send me a PM.
You/buyer might look into a private/trades shipper. I've actually heard alot of good stories about them.

I've never heard of such a thing, but I'm interested. Where would I find one of these shippers?

One of my coworkers here in Arlington sold a motorcycle to a lady up in minnesota. Guy just showed up in his pickup, said he was going from FW to his montana cabin for a short vacation, and had $2000 worth of stuff in his bed he was dropping off along the way. Said even with the long drive, he was making enough money to cover the round trip gas. The bike was delivered 2 days later.
