Thats direct from the courier company,its not his price.
If it was he could take a flying leap. This is why i am trying
to find somewhere or somehow to get it to AU cheaper.
The most exspensive quote i got just now was $1200!!
There has to be a way somehow to get it done for less
than $200 by courier surely.

Your paying for the item items plus shipping anyhow, what the fuck is wrong with the seller not wanting to go for usps?

Well,the seller doesnt ever ship international,at all,never ever kind of thing.
I managed to convince them to sell to me but it was under the provision that
i arrange all shipping/postage of the item. I thought,fine,its not going to be
to bad surely but,so far i was way wrong on this one.
The seller is a pawn shop in the US,dont think that makes any difference
though,apart from the fact if i dont go through with it,it doesnt bother them
at all,just me for losing out

well, i just think you have the right how you would like it shipped

Not through ebay. If a sellers listing states no international shipping
as this seller has done,i dont have a leg to stand on. As it stands its
high possibilty of loosing the deal or paying a bs courier charge.
This sucks big donkey sausages

have it shipped to someone from the US, and forward it to you.

Had a passing thought about that as well,just a little unsure about it.
I just rechecked USPS & it just exceeds the max,so i cant even do it by USPS
now. So chances are whoever does it for me will probably have to repack it all
& then send it. So i would have to pay for it to be shipped within the US,then
for it to be repacked & then for it to be shipped to me when its done.
This is turning into a major bummer & a headache

The max is L 46 x H 46 x W 35 inches and up to 70 pounds for international shipping for USPS. Click. Unless your adding up the sizes of your two boxes it should ship?

Also, which couriers have you gotten quotes for in the US? Although I'm pretty sure you covered the major ones I'm thinking of, FedEX, UPS, and DHL.

Have tried all those. USPS will take them,at $260 per box.
What gets me is i checked into US forwarding companies,
Shipitto can do each box for $85 +all their fees if i join up.
Who the hell do they use to send it.
