[Shop-talk] off-topic a LITTLE, its for the shop

[Brian Kennedy]

In MI I had to ship something out of country and I ended up at
www.argents.com. If memory serves, it had to be a company or some such thing.

in S. Calif. (93105), he says the last person who looked at buying in S.
Calif. was quoted $150 for shipping and backed out because of shipping costs.
I am willing to pay that shipping cost for this unit but everywhere I go on
the web starts at $525 and goes up to $650.   I know it can be cheaper if I go
terminal to terminal and he is willing to take it to one local to him, my
closest would be in Oxnard about 1 hour away.   How do I get this thing
shipped CHEAP, I did try the standard ones like UPS but they wont do that
weight and looking on the web just seems to get the expensive ones.
