Yes when you have to ship stuff that is over 150 pounds, it is expensive. There is no cheap solution. ABS seems to have the best rates and I've had very positive experiences with them. Even items that aren't that heavy but longer than average like projection screens are very expensive.
Who has experience shipping large speakers?
I sold my Soliloquy 6.5s on the Audiogon auction. To my surprise after boxing them they weigh 175 lbs! Now shipping has become more complicated and more expensive. They need to go to Newark NJ from Orlando FL. I would greatly appreciate any recommendations for a shipping company. The quotes I'm getting are all over the map, ranging form $285 to $725! Unbelievable.
