I haven't laid eyes on these things, but I'm thinking I'll put a bunch of disclaimers about shipping on these when I list them......I have NO CLUE how this is going to go, but we will try.

I can't wait to see this monster you are picking up.

I get them Wednesday....I can't stop thinking about the shipping and I haven't even seen them yet!
You are going to need lots of tape on the glass an major amounts of stuff inside to stabilize the glass. Been there its not fun at all.
DO NOT ship them. Sell local, "I ain't jokin man." COST prohibitive I can guarantee you.
Hmmm…not a shipping company out there I’d trust to deliver such items in one piece. Not sure I’d get involved in this…just grab the guns and go!
List the guns as normal. Then throw in the case with absolutely no guarantee on glass or condition. explain the difficulty of shipping. Could the glass be removed and the case sold without glass?

I like the idea of local pick up. You could even deliver while doing one of your planned trips around the country Kasey.
Of course an added charge for such service would be expected.
I will sell you a couple of gun boxes I have laying around.. lol
They might make good kindling for your fireplace....
If possible, obtain the original shipping boxes. The ones I have are very sturdy and were designed for that specific purpose.
How many firearms and glassed cases are we speaking of ? Long guns or handheld ?
