Does this price seem high? I know shipping is high on these. Any thoughts?

Scott (AFR) is selling em $350 plus shipping (Think 256mercman paid $425 with shipping for his about a week or two ago) for fiberglass ones but that does not include the top rail. Its hard to say. Brand new from Hydrostream Canada they are like $350 or so if I remember right for just the shield but shipping is a CRAZY high. Especially to the states.

I just bought one for $450 bucks + the ride. Wouldn't do it again. I'd say local pick up only. Here's why...

The package will be 5'x5'x2' by the time it is crated adequately to prevent damage in shipping and will weigh 150-200 lbs. UPS isn't going to touch it. You have to ship it truck freight. You're going to be looking at $200-$500 to ship it. They do not give a flying **** at a trucking company. They broke the crate mine was in (heavy plywood and 2x4 frame on a pallet), bent the rail to **** and shattered the plexi. For almost a grand I got basically the lower rail that's useable. Oh yeah, I had it insured too. The trucking company says it wasn't crated adequately, so they won't pay. The shipper says it's the trucking company's fault (it is), so they won't pay (I don't blame him). The crate even said "FRAGILE - GLASS" all over it!!!

There just isn't any way to ship one feasibly.

Sorry for the rant, but hate for somebody to go through the same thing I did.

Good luck with the sale. If you were closer, I'd be interested (if I still had any money in my windshield budget).

Russ (RussF) shipped one to me in a very well padded cardboard box a while back and it was maybe 10 pounds at best i bet. This was just for the windshield, not rails, and I think he said it cost right around $40-50 to ship it from NH to MN. It arrived in one piece just fine. If I remember right he sent it FedEx but I cant remember. Its been a while
