I don't remember the cost, but well worth it.  I got my 19" eygo that way.  They take care of the shipment.

how about fedex ground?  my D9200 shipped for $60.
else, you could try DTS (url escapes me).
I just went through this same hunt when someone inquired about shipping an rc helicopter to taiwan.. asked our purchasing department, and they gave me some names, although I've deleted the mail since.

http://www.roadway.com/

Oh well, they were good, now bought by fedex.

[SNAAAKE]

thats the problem..fedex is weird..

I just called..they said around $300 for a 32" monitor.. .

What the heck..i mgiht have to screw the plan and go with a smaller monitor after all.

Oh yeah the laziness...actually didnt think about google search(again I gotta rethink next time).

What about UPS?

What about UPS?

They wont take it because its over 150lbs..only 9lbs more..

I say we screw UPS..you know..tell them its only 150 lbs and when the guy comes and pickup he wouldnt know.

UPS was reasonable though.
Only around $115.

I will see what I can do..thanks for help everyone !

I always see people shipping video games using forward air..

[kspiff]

I thought forward air meant that you still had to arrange shipping from the closest airport terminal to your location..?

might be hard for snack to arrange anything tho...was just putting out options for him..

here's another shipper i've found.
http://www.overnite.com/
i haven't used them yet, so i'm not giving any sort of recomendation. just passing along the info. for what it's worth, i think they have more dropoff points than forward air.

i also know of another company that ships door to door. i've forgotten the name tho. if i remember i'll post it.

one way to find shippers(besides the obvious yellow pages...google...) is check various ebay auctions to see what companies the sellers use to ship their machines.

Good grief man.  You do know how to operate a Search Engine, right?

Or you could try: "Thanks for the company names, but I can't find the links for their webpages..."
