Who's had good luck shipping a projector overseas, and what freight company did you use? I just got a quote of $600 to ship a G70 to Melbourne (dropoff at RDU, pickup at MLB) and that seemed high, but I really don't have anything to compare it against.

Thanks,
-Brian

Nope, $600 is about right. I just sent a 9500 Ultra to Melbourne, and it was $880.

Thanks, all, for the validation. The buyer seems to be AWOL after I sent back the quote... <fingers cross>

Cheers,
