I WANTED TO GIVE SOMEONE A SPECIAL PRESENT, THAT SHE TRULY WANTED ANYWAY. UPS, FEDEX,USPS ALL WANTED $170!! WHOA NOW! DHL WANTED $82.OO NOT BAD. THOUGHT I WOULD EXPLORE A LITTLE FURTHER AND FOUND USHIP....AND THROUGH USHIP I PAID EVEN LESS. I LIKED HOW MY SERVICE PROVIDER, MARK, CAME RIGHT TO MY HOUSE AND GOING WITH MARK I DIDN'T HAVE TO FIND A BOX FOR MY ODDLY SHAPED ITEM. THAT WAS PROBABLY THE BIGGEST PAIN THAT WAS AVOIDED.THANKS AGAIN USHIP AND DRIVER 11962
