I must say that is some serious shipping costs for one machine at $940, even if it was crated and delivered to your door versus a terminal. Local in state delivery estimate seems quite outrageous from my experience.

I just had a full delivery across country on an equivalent item in weight/size to a pinball shipped for delivery (crated), and it clocked in at less than $350. Home delivery would have added another $150, but I normally don't do that sort of thing, unless I can get bolstered into the purchase price through negotiations.

I ship games back freight from Europe as well. No entire container loads today just import/export individual titles. Same process, except more custom processing. I have never spent more than $500 in recent years shipping only, but this does not include any custom fees.

If this is standard costs now, I won't be moving my collection to Hawaii.
