It could just be an estimate, but either way it will probably be only like $25 at the very most to ship that stuff.

I got a reply from the seller. He said that 75 US is a Fair price, and that he works for a shipping company. He also mentioned that he´s going to send with UPS next day shipping...

I found the email:

Dear suppafly1,

You asked:
"I would´ve bid on your auction, but 75 dollars is an OUTRAGEOUS amount for shipping...too bad for you."

its not really considering it will be in multiple boxes and will be sent out ups 2nd day air,I work for a shipping and receiving company, the cost could be greater depending on the distance from Wisconsin

Well, it will cost more if he ships in in two packages though there's really no reason to. Plus he said that he's shipping 2-Day. I wonder what his response would be if you asked if he would ship UPS ground instead since its cheaper.
