I'm 25 miles southwest of downtown Cleveland, and am willing to travel 25-miles or so. That means Cleveland west side and Lorain County. I do NOT have access to bike boxes, but the one shop I contacted with gave me a price of $35 packing fee for bikes + actual shipping.

I am looking for somebody near Stratford, Connecticut who can assist in shipping a bike. I won the bike on ebay, the seller said they were willing to ship - but now they're dragging their feet and telling me they'll need to make a crate and it will cost "well over" $100 to ship the bike. Which I know is not true at all. If there is anybody there that could help me get my bike, it'd be much appreciated.

Any fellow Texans in the DFW area willing to help with an ebay bike? That is if I can get them to accept a decent offer first. It's a local pickup only in McKinney.,,,,BD
