Remingtonclassic, I think your words were "I'll take it, IF WE CAN GET SETTLED ON A SHIPPING COST". There was a caveat to the I'll take it. Decided wasn't worth the hazzle.

Make the drive and you can buy it too. Several ffl shops will be happy to do the transfer

Seems there were several dealing with him on this rifle. I told him as well last night I would purchase rifle depending on shipping as he said he would have to check with his dealer for shipping price. Then I see he has deleted his add this morning.

Yall have proven my point. People said they wanted it depending on shipping. I'm not contacting my dealer with several zip codes and getting several qoites on shipping just to waste his time if ppl think it's too high, since some had texted thinking $25 would be enough. So I deleted the ad. If I relist it, it will be for pick up here with local transfer only. Btw....the original ad said I prefer local but might consider shipping.

I've shipped several. Don't ship from an ffl to an ffl. Go to the post office and send it to the ffl yourself. I've never had a firearm cost me more that 30 dollars to ship usps. It must have been quite a while since you have shipped a firearm, it costs almost $30 to ship a scope. Go online and do a usps shipping calculation to ship a firearm and you will be surprised at what it costs now. I have recently sold off some of my rifles and shipping them myself, it has run around $75 to $95 to ship one very far and adding insurance really makes the cost soar. drover

And what the heck is another 20 bucks or so? If your worried about shipping cost, then just go the store and get one. Plus 99.9 percent of all items sold on the fire has to be shipped.

I just sent a shotgun from North Dakota to Louisiana, cost me 35 bucks. For that CZ, take the action out of the stock so it’s not overlong and shouldn’t be more than 35-40 bucks anywhere in the country.

It makes everyone's life easier if a seller just has a flat shipping fee listed. If it's too high, buyers will move on or make an offer shipping included.
