Post An LS-1 Block I don't need

I recently won a bid on E-Bay on an LS-1 Aluminum Short Block. This is just the bare block. I had plans on dropping it into my 95' Camaro Z-28. After doing some research, I decided NOT to use it because of the numerous modifications I would have to do just to make it work. So, I went ahead and got me an LT-1 block instead. I haven't paid the seller yet because I am hoping to find someone in the next few days who would be interested in buying it. All I am asking for it is the amount that I won the bid at which is $305.00. Shipping would be up to the buyer. The engine does have a defect and that is 1 cylinder is damaged and it needs to be resleeved. Other than that, it's a good engine with only 20,000 miles on it. The block is out of a 2001 Z-28. The engine swallowed a valve and ultimately broke the piston and rod. The damage is only confined to the 1 cylinder. I do have pics that I can attach if anyone is interested. The block is located in New Jersey. I live here in Southern California so if anyone out there is from the east coast or closer, shipping should not be that much.
