The cost to ship was a few hundred dollars by freight on the back of a truck. So between the cost of the press and the shipping, it was quite an investment! It took about a week for the press to arrive and it was packaged very well and tight - bolted down on a pallet - so it wouldn't move during transit. There are several companies that you can ask for an estimate online; similar to insurance quotes. You submit what you are shipping, details, etc. and they get back to you with a quote. You could try the shipping companies I mention above for some recommendations. Buying from ebay is risky. I kept major tabs on the classifieds at Briar Press. Good luck and let me know if you have additional questions.</p></p> <p>Hi Wendy, I bought it from a private owner/dealer from Richmond, Virginia.
