[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 124762, member: 172"] Re: Air Freight? Next day early shipping on a 2RU device in manufacturer box was ~$200 via FedEx (retail price, more frequent shippers can certainly do better) last time I needed to do that, and I've also seen quotes in that same $200 range for ~100lb flight cases on UPS at bulk shipper rates (for something that usually ships standard UPS ground). So the shipping part of that quote doesn't seem out of line for a console valued at $15k, at least not assuming a console in a flight case that may or may not fit happily into a standard air freight container. I don't have a good point of reference on the insurance, though. [/QUOTE]
