Sounds like a total rip off. Worth checking out those HD models, I can't find it either.

And if you have an 84Lumber in your area (most lower 48 do), pretty nice kits for less then 50K..........................

A small one of these http://www.ncsbarns.com/cabins/cabin_gallery.htm probably would be and they are delivered set-up... no assembly required! They sell these about 1 hour from the land you are looking to buy and they are well built (fully insulated)-- I've stayed in them at Old Forge/Water Safari. My BIL has one of the garages and that is also well built. They are scattered all over in the Adirondacks... You can get them small (12x12) to quite large (20x36) They deliver the first 20 miles free and then it is $2 per mile so you would be looking at probably a little over $100 delivery. Also, they will prepare your site for you, have equipment to place them back in the woods if no road etc.... sounds perfect for your site to me!!
