This website says international moves cost "up to $2.5k". Pricey, but not prohibitive.[1] Long-distance moves are usually pretty costly anyway.

91 was almost 30 years ago. $2.5k today is the cost of an economy round-trip ticket from the US to someplace like India or China around the December holidays.
