Hello
, I would be happy to arrange shipping for you
.
I put local pick up in the items description because Ebay always seems to put to low a price for shipping valuable or fragile items that have to be shipped and properly insured, like this item. We use several different movers that only ship antiques, UPS and the USPO for smaller items, whatever they charge is what you would pay. But yes, I would be happy to take care of that after I get their shipping quote.
Yours truly, Thomas Perry
