Good points all and I appreciate the input.
The $700 freight is what the eBay seller near DC quoted by e-mail.

You're talking to the wrong people for shipping. My 7970 came from
Ohio to Oregon, and was securely palletized.
The trick was to use a packaging/shipping service to handle things both
at the sending and receiving end. They usually have contracts with
freight companies for considerably better rates than the usual one-off
LTL shipper prices.
Do your homework. $700 is ridiculous.
