Vintage Shakespeare Wonderod Professional buying 7'9" fly Rod with Case, Very Rare

Here's a rare one, Shakespeare Wonderod Professional 7'9" fly Rod with Case. The white ones are pretty common but the black rod with gold wrap it pretty rare. Even more so with the Wonderod case. There is a mark on the black reel ring but otherwise it appears almost unused.

Etsy is now pushing it's sellers to offer free shipping on all their items.
While this might be okay for sellers who only sell small items or all their items are the same,
There are sellers like us of unique and vintage items of all sizes and weights who just can't
offer free shipping.
No shipping is free, it's simply added into the cost of the item. It would be unfair to expect
someone who lives on the east coast, close to me, to pay the same price as the west coast simply
because I would have to add west coast shipping into all my buying items. For me, on larger items,
the difference between shipping to the east as opposed to the west coast can be as much as $50,
sometimes more. Seems to me actual shipping costs using Etsy's own postage calculator is the
fairest means of shipping.
