I shipped a 1950's 8 ft sofa and a 42 inch matching chair that I found in a consignment shop while visiting my sister in Boise, ID. My sister and her husband offered to bring them over for free when they come to visit in September but I wanted them sooner so I posted the job on u-ship.com. I stumbled onto u-ship while checking out my shipping options on line. I received 4 offers and accepted Duane Sharrai's offer. I received the pieces quicker than anticipated. Duane even took off the front door to get the sofa into my apartment. I know I got a great price at $300.00 and top notch service to boot. I couldn't go over $300.00 because of finances and besides - If I wanted to wait I could have got them delivered for free so I also had to consider that when I posted my preferred/desirable price for shipping.
