Got $525 shipping quote from NAVL to ship sopranos from MA to CA...Anybody use another shipper who may be more reasonable?

Quote was from Michelle, no stairs on either pick up or delivery. I guess its just prices climbing...going to use their services anyway because they are the best at it and dont want to take a chance with someone else not doing the job correctly. Seller was kind enough to split the extra charge with me so Sopranos will be on its way soon!

I would but I cant fit the pin in the overhead bin......

This is the last game I will have shipped.... it just seems like its way too much.... the only reason I am doing it this time is I have not been able to find this title on the west coast for less than what I'm paying for the pin and shipping.

Unfortunately me nor the seller live at a business...

UPDATE: 10-7-14

My new pin was picked up in Massachusetts on Fri. 9-26-14 and was in So Cal the following Fri.
Due to circumstances on my end it could not be delivered until today. Arrived in a timely manner, driver was right on time for pick up and delivery, and was in the same condition when it arrived as when it left the east coast.

Thanks to waltgman for describing condition of the machine accurately and selling for a price that was fair to both of us. I highly recommend him as a seller.
