I have a couple of heavy items I'm trying to sell - a 500lb jointer, and a large standing drill press (not sure the weight, probably 200-300lbs). I am relying on the buyer to provide the means of transporting each of these 2 items. I really don't want to be bothered with the details of transport. However, the ideas suggested to me by potential buyers so far make me nervous.

Has anyone dealt with this before? I want to do this the safest and most expedient way possible. I'm thinking perhaps (worst case) a 3rd party mover who specializes in this would be a possibility. The shipment would be fairly local, and I'm willing to adjust my asking price to accommodate the added cost.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. BTW, the items will be posted again (since I didn't follow forum rules the first time).

Thx,
John
