What began as a very stressful experience of purchasing the same motorcycle twice, a couple thousand miles away from me, ended on a high note today when I took delivery from a high caliber shipper that I found on uShip. I first purchased my dream bike sight unseen for a dream price on a very familiar online auction site only to find out that the seller didn't have the title in hand. After I expressed my reluctance to fork over a five figure dollar amount without being presented with legal ownership, the seller turned and sold the bike to a dealership instead. Once I found out and once the dealership had the title, I purchased it - now a second time - directly from them. (Did I mention this was my dream bike?) Anyhow, after shopping around for traditional shipping services I came across uShip and quickly decided I liked the format and felt it offered a very reliable feedback system to rate the shipping services being offered. I had secured shipping for the first purchase then had to back out at the last minute. The shippers were extremely reasonable and professional. After I purchased the bike the second time, I again secured shipping on uShip from XCOUNTRYXPRESS. This time for good. The shipping experience couldn't have gone any better. XCOUNTRYXPRESS facilitated the inspection & safe delivery of a bike I had never seen. They did it with a level of service that is simply not as prevalent today and I am happy to have found not only XCOUNTRYXPRESS to ship my bike, but also uShip to provide us a venue to match their service to my need. Thanks again, it has been just a fantastic experience.
