Very nice rifle, but you would think someone paying $51,750.00 would be allowed to keep the $35.00 hard case it ships in...

This person advertises in several different mediums. It's not his first rodeo.

The way i read it, 35 is the approximate shipping costs for the container alone.  OR that you can send him your container-problem solved.  

But yeah, some of us would throw in the box eh. Maybe he's working on a thin margin? 

Photos, though plentiful and close-enough, could use some fill lighting.  :P

He is most likely shipping it in a couple hundred dollar hard case. Of course he wants his case back. However if I was going to pay that much for a rifle, I  would drive and get it.

Of course! I always send a porter for anything over 49,999.  ;)

Yeah me too! ;D   Actually I would be packing heat, checking the funds every few miles. Then on the way back make the wife sit in the truck babysitting the rifle, when we stopped at the rest areas. We would not stop to eat cause we could not afford that, would eat onion and bologna sandwiches on white bread, might be able to splurge on some Frenchs Mustard.
