Bridgeport clone, $700, Aurora, ON

well...IF a guy knew what it weighed...and dimensions once palletized...it's easy enough to get a quote from say Day & Ross...
Some freight carriers go by a cubic measurement...it could weigh 200 or 2000, they go by the area of space the object takes up...
others will go by weight and pallet foot print...
I have three Meritor 26K rated center sections to ship back to Ontario next week...the freight is less than 400 bucks...they collectively weigh 1500 lbs though...and will be on a pallet that's slightly oversize...

Still...it'd be a gamble on this mill...someone would have to go check it out etc...then coordinate with the seller on pickup and payment...
then there's the "why n how did the handwheel break??" scenario...
Someone out east is gonna get a good deal methinks
