Shipping Question, Houston Area

[ashardin]

I've got my eye on this eBay auction:

I've been looking at something like this for over a year now, to do a pedestal in front of my big screen and run MAME from the TV out of the computer.  This guy is pretty steadfast on his statement of no shipping, but said he would work something out if I could arrange shipping.  I'm located in Oswego IL, a suburb of Chicago.

I've got to figure it would be pretty spendy to get a company out to wrap and ship (maybe even put it on a palette, not sure if it would need it or not).  Does anyone know of a firm in the Houston area that can do this cost effectively?  Does this look like something that would have to go on a truck or is there another way I could get it up to me?  Time isn
