I got mine direct from Helix and shipped it through
http://www.shipito.com/
From memory it was around $150 - $180 for shipping...
Write to Helix and ask for the box size & weight and enter it into their calculator:

Choose Hawthorne as the shipping destination. Should arrive at your door in about 3 - 5 days once it leaves Shipito.
Although it is a VERY nice FMIC, you won't get any great real world gains on some of the cheaper units around. Every little bit adds up though I guess!
