Heres some prices a 3 1/2 foot tree is 250.00....Here after you get to the 5 year old tree and to the 7 year old tree the price increases close to 100.00 every 1/2 foot there after..a 6 foot tree would be worth around 750.00 to 800.00..Keep in mind these prices are at a nursery and the  palm tree is not in the ground yet like yours is..one that large is going to require heavy machinery (such as a back hoe) to even get up..then not just any little pickup will haul this large of a rootball..so the profit margin to you will be alot smaller just paying to have this done..unless you find someone to buy it "as is" at a reduced price, and give the responsibility of transplanting to them...

Put an ad on Craigslist and specify that the buyer must move the plant.
