Default Shortblock purchasers, some questions...

I am in the market for a new stock size shortblock (346 - 348) in the $2000 - $3000 range. I live in NJ where there are a few quality vendors who make shortblocks. I can either buy one off of a nearby vendor and pick it up myself or purchase one out of state and pay shipping. My questions are:

1. How much did it cost to have your shortblock shipped to you?

2. Did it have to be shipped to a commercial building (with a loading dock) or did you have it shipped to a residential location?

3. Did you have to pay shipping to send your core(s) back to the vendor?

Thanks,
Tony

Why don't you check out Cartek or TTP, they are both in Jersey.

Yes, I know. You can see from my sig, that I have a Cartek clutch. However, I'm just being a smart shopper. Lingenfelter is offering smallblocks for $2095.00. If shipping is around $400.00, then I'm spending $2500 for my smallblock instead of Cartek's $2699 or TTP's $2799. That's why I'm asking the questions. Just trying to cover all of the bases.
