Unfortunately shipping is based both on weight and size. There is no way to really ship that thing cheap because the box is going to be relatively large. The only thing that might reduce the cost would be if it was just wrapped in celaphane and a label stuck on the thing. I've had a few things shipped to me that way and as long as they aren't going to be damaged by lack of packaging it usually works out okay. $60.00 for shipping might not be all that bad honestly.

you could save $15-$20 by boxing it yourself

thats what i was thinking about doing, just wrapping it in bubble wrap or something and slapping a label. unfortunately i dont have a large enough box thats why its 60 because like you said, its around 20 for them to have a box for it
