Europe to USA RD2 Shipping Help Needed!

Hey, I'm looking into a RD2 in Europe that may work out, but I have never arranged shipping, and the seller doesn't quite know what to do either. Is anyone really experienced who can help figure out shipping of a RD2 from Europe to the USA? There's no box or crate, so a sturdy box/packing material would be needed as well. Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to help!

Had to delete my original post after realizing you were shipping from Europe to the US and not the other way around.

The cost of shipping alone would likely not make it a worthwhile endeavor.

Very true. The price discussed is pretty good - good enough that if it was in the USA I would have already bought it. So there's a chance. Still hoping someone experienced may lend a hand. I have the info on the doll and the addresses involved. I received a Si---uh...certain type of doll from Australia for around $1000 in shipping last year, so even at a price like that, the deal may be all right. And this is not as far away as Australia.

Well. A RD in her original box is going to weigh approx. 200 - 225 lbs. Off top of my head dimensions are 30"w x 30"D x 78"H. It may be bigger.

There is no crate. a generic box would be used. my other one came that way just fine. not more than 10lb of packaging. I'm just looking for someone who knows the drill and could help set up quotes with the right companies.
