I tried shipping this throught ups sometime ago and was told they wouldn't do it with the glass. can;t remember who else I tried but recall it being rather expensive. has here anyone shipped on of these or received one? I am selling to a mud member and want to get him the best price possible. thanks Ken

I had good luck with Forward Air. They were the cheapest by 1/2 to ship a 40 top and doors from Seattle to PA. Only bad part was pickup is at Philly airport.
