    I was looking at getting an Eastonmade Ultra. Their website says about $4600. Just curious what the actual cost would be transporting it to Ohio including import fees.

    2yrs ago and he said he paid $3600 plus $1000 shipping. Now its $4600. Wonder how much shipping has increased.

    Long day trip. Maps says 7hrs 53 minutes.
    $400-500 in gas
    $100 food
    $100 hotel
    $100 in tolls
    Might be worth paying $1200-1400 shipping

    Custom freight hauling is running around $3.50 per loaded mile. Or check out freightquote.com they can calculate shipping price from all the LTL shippers that service shippers and receivers zip code.

    I am fortunate enough to have 10+ LTL shipping terminals within an hour of me, Can either schedule delivery or pick up at terminal.
