I would try to tell them that there is already a destination fee and that $750 additional is excessive. I would try to split the fee with them. Given that they gave you a very good deal (700 below invoice), they may not have much more room to play with. IMO, $750 is a little high. In 2005 my dad had a car shipped from California to Ottawa, Canada (east coast) for only $1000.

Hope this helps. Either way even with the fee, you still got a good deal overall.

When using the VPP program I believe the destination charge is already left out. How they arrive at the price is taking invoice of the car, subtract 2.75% or something like that from the price, so that in the end you have a price below invoice. Then after that only dealer fees, tax, and title apply. So currently in my price there is no destination charge, but I will double check that on monday. I'm I'm wrong and you are right then i might be able to bargin my way out of one of those charges.
