That sounds about right for something that size, to me. I paid upwards
of $180 to ship ONE empty equipment rack from MI to MD (half the country)
a number of years ago. This is three (if not full-height). A lot of the
cost doesn't come from the mileage so much as the handling on either end,
since something that heavy requires some pretty serious equipment to get
on and off the truck, plus most freight companies will require it to be
crated and palletized (which the seller stated upfront).

I'm glad someone got it. I hope it is going to a good home.
I had the money to buy it, the place to put it, and even the ability to power it, and to
put disks on it...but no way to transport it.

They want an arm and a leg for freight too. I live 40 miles away and they quoted me $360
to deliver it. Not that I could have afforded it anyway but, I had to ask.
