Hi Amy, I apologize for the price increase, but as I explained to you when you first placed the order that its the carrier that determines the price of the transport. I do my best to quote you as best I can but ultimately I can only relay what the carriers want. The time that you chose to ship played a big part in the cost. Its our transition period from fall pricing(which tends to be cheaper) to spring summer pricing (which tends to be Higher) As a broker we do not know exactly when the increase will happen, unfortunately it happened in the midst of your transport. I sincere am sorry. but ultimately we got your vehicle transported and it arrived save and sound
