Just the trolley can be $50-100 depending on weight capability and can easily go much higher for better ones. My estimat is that you can save a bit by buying the cable and hardware yourself but not a ton.

Not much there different. The trolleys there are barebones of the low end ones. Once you add handles and whatever else is needed they are not much cheaper especially since by the time they come it will be winter.

I purchased "Slackers Zipline 70' Hawk Series with Seat" on Amazon. The quality is good.
We have been happy with it. The kids love it. It's been up for several years and we leave it out over the winter.

Ps You need to wrap the tree with something so the wire doesn't cut (eat into) the bark or you can damage/kill the tree.

PM me if I can be of additional assistance.
