Price for shipping complete bike from USA - I'm getting $600?!

(1/2) > >>

Ok so I'm modifying this thread, I'm super stoked as thanks to everyone's advice below, my offer was accepted on this survivor '83 Torker 280X.

Now I'm trying to get it here for MK, but the prices I'm getting are a bit nuts.

I gave the sizes I got from a thread on bmxmuseum, which were 49"x29"x8" bike box and 35lbs weight. (Ive since found out it weighs 21lbs)

I called 2 local places in the USA yesterday:
UPS - $888.51 and here by Wednesday if they ship on Monday
$603 - here by Friday

I was expecting to pay between $150 and $300 so am a bit befuzzled!

I'm guessing quite a few of you bring bikes over from the USA and wondered if you can please help with advice and I'll buy you a beer at MK  :bow:
