if fully assembled it will cost quite a bit. Shipping takes in consideration weight and size.
A single sheet of 8'x4' 5/8" thick particle board (or melamine) (you can build a single 4'x2'x2' cage, though trimming or something will be needed for the front as doors) weighs about 80 pounds. Add in glass doors, or even just wood and screen or plexi-glass doors, and you are probably at 90-100 pounds.
