Shipping?

[loman4ec]

I am thinking about buying another machine and have found one that I rather like on greed bay. I was just wandering what a general price is to ship a machine. I know you can never tell how much it will be unless you have both address'. I guess what I am asking is what have any of you paid for shipping and who do you use? Thanks

The only way I find that it is affordable is if the seller is willing to put it on a pallet and take it to a shipper. I have found I can get about any machine shipped via Forward air for $125 - $250 + whatever the seller charges to crate it. You can expect that to cost you an additional $125 - $200.

I just had a C-72 shipped from Wisconsin to Houston via Roadway Express for just over $300 Dock to Dock.  Luckily I had a seller who was willing to crate and take the machine to the roadway dock.  I may have paid more using roadway but it was who the seller was farmiliar with so I went with it.  Best of Luck

I'm in the process having a Cavalier C55 shipped from Oklahoma to Massachusetts.  Cost (door to door) is $325.00.  

Problem is it won't get here until mid-July  '>

No crating, no pallet.  He just throws a moving blanket on it and off he goes.  The seller has used him many times and is very happy with him.  He considers himself a mover of antiques and collectibles - not just a shipper.

I'll let you know how it goes.  Mid-July seems miles away...

Once it arrives, you'll forget all about how long it took for delivery ! ! !
