Help with exhaust shipping problem???

So I bought this exhaust to have it shipped to me. The problem is that in order for it to be shipped, the shop would have to cut the piping and send it in two separate shipments. Mind you its the y-pipe and back. Should I (a) try and get a refund, (b) tell them to ship it and take it to a muffler shop and have them weld it and put it on, or (c) drive the 7 hours and have the shop install it?? All help is appreciated

That doesn't sound right to me. I'm sure there's a way to ship it as is. The exhaust isn't broken up into sections?

There's no reason I can think of that they can't cut it and ship in the same box. Sounds like they're trying to make some extra $$ on shipping like most companys/individuals do....
