Default Door shipping options- need help

I have my 2 Elky doors for sale. $225 BTW.....

Some one in Florida is interested in them but, they need to be shipped from Ohio. Lowest quote I got was from DHL for 400 for the pair.

Anyone know of another method that would be economical?

If not then come and buy these doors... want to put some $$$ into my elky!!!


Ray...

PS, please PM for door inquiries.

See if you and your buyer are close to a Grehound bus terminal. I've never used them to ship but I have received 2 69 GP doors and a fender for a Duster from vendors who used them. I think the doors were $75
a piece from Florida to NJ.

I don't know if they are in your area, but if so than maybe Forward Air can help you.. It's what most of the pinball/arcade nuts in the lower 48 use, you have to package and deliver the product to the closest Forward Air base, which is usually an airport of siginificant size.
