If you think shipping to Washington is expensive, try Alaska!!
Most sellers on fleabay or Amazon want to charge 2nd day air for everything, even stuff that will fit in a USPS flat rate box.
I ordered a bunch of repair panels from Jim Carter (cowl panels, cab corners, bed aprons, fender patch panels, etc.) and as I recall they had a shipping promotion, but of course it only applied to the lower 48. Anyway, I had them ship to me c/o Span Alaska, an LTL freight forwarder in Auburn near you and they brought them up to their terminal in Anchorage where I picked them up. They also picked up a front drive axle for my SuperDuty in PA and shipped it to Anchorage for about $300 IIRC. The trick is to order as much as you can in one bunch so you're not paying $50 shipping for a single $30 part. Definitely call the supplier and ask them what shipping options they have. You might also check with Span Alaska and have them give you a quote for pickup of the shipment at the supplier.
I'm still in the disassembly/repair stages, but am actually contemplating a road trip to pick up some stuff as my restoration continues. Probably buy a small trailer, fill it with stuff and come back home and sell the trailer.
