In 2004 I retired from the real estate industry after 30 years at the age of 49. I then sold antique toys at regional shows and on ebay under the name funnyboytoys. One day I sold my friends 1974 De Tomas Pantera on eBay and the transporter forgot the hood and an important box of parts. I delivered these myself to LasVegas and thus started my other part time job. Later that year I bought a medium duty Chevrolet C4500 dually crew cab truck with a versahauler bed and drove for 1 year delivering travel trailers all over the US. From time to time I will still deliver a Motor coach. Now I travel at least once a month to visit friends and family, booking a delivery to pay for my travel expenses. I currently am looking for jobs to offset my fuel costs as I travel back and forth to and from Chicago and Austin TX, Bentonville AR, Columbia SC, Montgomery AL, Pittsfield MA and Sarasota FL. Always ask or respond to a question if you need more information -retiredjeff

This gentleman is simply outstanding!!! Great communication, great service. He even helped disassemble and reassemble an antique (per my prior approval) so that the item could be shipped more reasonably. I would use this gentleman anywhere, anytime to ship my items.

The customer no longer needed the item(s) shipped There was a change in the description offered by the shipper. The shipper and I spoke when I called to confirm the addresses immediately after the match. He stated there was a change in the way his customer or the insurance company involved wished the item to be shipped that he was not aware of until after he told his bosses that he had contracted someone to handle the delivery. The shippers' customer required that the item be tracked online in a manner other than available on Uship.

No Detailed Feedback Available There was a change to the shipping price or terms that could not be resolved Service provider unable towing my car he only use driveaway services and my car have front hit and cannot be drive.
Response from retiredjeff:
There was no change in the shipping terms nor price- The shipper reacted to my low price and made a "match" without looking at my bid. PLEASE READ THE BIDS BEFORE YOU DECIDE ON A TSP TO MOVE YOUR VEHICLE!! The customer misrepresented their shipment and I cannot service it. I bid on this as a Driveaway (vehicle is driven) -see the listing -see my bid. The shipper made no mention that the vehicle was damaged nor could not be driven! He even relisted under a new name to save his name!!

No Detailed Feedback Available A scheduling conflict arose that could not be resolved OUR VEHICLE THAT WAS TO BE DRIVEN BACK TO OK HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS THAT COULD NOT BE FORSEEN. JEFF WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL, AND HELPED TO RESOLVE EVERY PROBLEM. BUT DUE TO THE NUMBER OF MECHANICAL PROBLEMS, I CHOSE TO TOW IT BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL LOCATION AND TRANSPORT IT HOME. THANK YOU JEFF, AND AGAIN I AM VERY SORRY FOR YOUR TROUBLE. I WISH THAT THE TRUCK WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE DEPENDABLE. I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR PROFESSIONALISM.
Response from retiredjeff:
I picked up this vehicle as a Driveaway (vehicle is driven) but was plagued with tire and mechanical problems for the get-go. I replaced tires and repaired rims under the direction of the shipper, but when the second of mechanical problems arose, I arranged for the vehicle to be towed back to its origination auction site location with a tow firm, making sure the $1800 remote for the crane boom was secure. Shipper made prompt reimbursement of all expenses incurred. Wil, thanks for that!

No Detailed Feedback Available The Service Provider is not able to accommodate this shipment shipper dont ship non drivable cars
Response from retiredjeff:
The customer misrepresented their shipment and I cannot service it. HERE IS A CLASSIC EXAMPLE AS WHY YOU SHOULD LIST AS MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR SHIPMENT AS POSSIBLE AND ASK QUESTIONS FOR OR RESPOND TO THE QUESTIONS OF THE TSP. On 1/13 I asked- My Question: If driveable under your plates & insurance $580.00 Pick up Thur/Fri. this week AND I then bid on 1/16 as a Driveaway with an even lower price. See listing- See my bid. NO mention damaged not driveable! At least the shipper read my profile
