I don't want to go out on a limb regarding your shipping as I don't know your situation. I just know that Marlin got mine one state over for $27. I can't see why it would too different going the other way. Only fly in the ointment I can see is if the stinger makes it oversized or some such. Mine was a no stinger model. I just thought the OP should consider all that before making a decision.

SpecialScottie keep in mind bumper price + shipping + tax + fab work for the total price. Shipping might not be the dealkiller.
Great point Blknblu. Considering the extra cost of making the marlin or allpro work with the bodylift, it might be better off just going the other way
