Question: I have two strong men,proper moving equipment,and will show up and deliver same day on time.Please accept my bid soon as you decide so I won't overlap bookings. (4/15/2008)
Response: Thank you very much for your bid - however, my budget just can't handle that price. I will be fine tuning my pieces of furniture online so please take another look to see if it's more or less - than what you bid on to begin with....thanks! (4/15/2008)
Response: I noticed just now that it sais you would provide one rental truck.I am not sure if you saw,but I would be saving you that money because my bid includes my own truck,trailer and gas.Gas alone is pretty high,but my bid covers all of this. (4/15/2008)
Response: Yes I am aware of that - however, budget is very tight and that is why I have some appliances to offer as partial payment to offset my total costs. (4/16/2008)
Question: Sorry.No can do and good luck finding anyone to do it even for what I bid.I kicked myself after placing those bids really.I have never moved anyone over 80 miles for less than $500.00,so honestly I don't think you are going to find anyone.I wish you luck of course and if you do then great,but I am not going to use my labor,use on truck,trailer/miles plus the fuel for any less than I already bid.$350.00 is just unreasonable,unfair and impractical.Maybe someone will see this statement and try to prove me wrong.If they wish to take a loss or break even or work for marbles,then fine.I offer prompt,quality service and for the amount of items you have I can easily get $400.00 even moving someone locally.Sorry I am not interested in placing a lower bid than I placed before. (4/28/2008)
Response: If you had fully read the ad the first time I offered a 2 year old refrigerator plus a washer and dryer as additional partial payment - as I said my budget was tight. I didn't see you respond to that in your first bids. The refrigerator alone is worth $500 not to mention the W/D. However, I do understand with the recent downturn of the economy it would certainly have to be negotiated. Pictures speak louder than words and I should have a picture uploaded as well because the items are not a full 1 bedroom house - that's just the only thing I could have checked to get it listed. All things considered, I appreciate your comments and wish you luck finding moves that will prove lucrative for you. (4/28/2008)
Response: I read that you had some items to boot,but I wasn't aware that was your only option.So I apologize.You might consider putting photos of those items you are offering as boot so someone can see what it is you are offering. (4/28/2008)

Question: hello, i can do this for your target price if you dont mind an open trailor, if your interested ill be glad to bid, thanks (5/27/2008)
Response: Please bid and let me know what you available dates would be. It will be a simple 1 day - 1-way move - weather permitting since you have an open trailer.
Thanks (6/26/2008)
Response: shipper, i can get you done within the next week, unfortunately its been a month since i gave you a price, and your just now responding, and i cant do it now for the price that i gave you then, and it looks like you may have added a few items to your shipment also, i can do this for 850 enclosed transport, or 550 open transport, and these prices, are good for this and next week only, as ill be in town till next friday, im sorry for any inconvinience and if you want me to bid ill be glad to do so, thanks (6/26/2008)
Response: I appreciate your response. However, this move in nowhere near the costs you propose. It is for the items listed and that only - I could rent a truck and get it moved myself for half of that....but paying the other half just to have the help? I don't think so. It's only the items listed and quite possibly less as I have been getting more and pieces in my car. So thanks for your initial bid and if you want to bid again - please do.
(7/3/2008)
Response: sorry but i cant help you for any less, just because you can do it for half the price yourself, doesnt justify me doing it for you for free, im in this business for profit, not charity, and ill be glad to move your items for you and give you the best price i can, but i need a accurate list of what you want moved, and exactly when you want it done, then ill bid accordingly, thanks (7/3/2008)
Response: Maybe you need to re-read the ad - the list is item specific and is EXACTLY what needs to be moved. Your quip response about doing it for FREE or CHARITY is insulting and frankly, an unacceptable response to a totally honest ad. Save your remarks - you're going to have to 'justify' them to someone else. Certainly not me.Have a nice day and good luck. (7/3/2008)
Question: I can move for your target price. If interested lrt me know. Tracy (7/4/2008)

Question: We will be in AL sometime tomorrow and will be able to accomodate your shipment. We can do this for 400.00 to us, you would be responsible for [content removed - To avoid confusion on the part of the customer, TSP’s may no longer mention “uShip fees”, "uShip commission", or similar language in their Q&A – this will now be a flaggable offense as bids must be all inclusive. -uShip]. If this will work for you let us know and we can proceed with shipment details. Thanks (7/7/2008)
Response: Your question states you will accept $400 to you and I will be responsible for UShip fees - however, your actual bid states $454 - so I'm not sure which is right - how do I know how much UShip fees will be?
I very interested in your bid - I just need to get some clarification.
Thanks (7/7/2008)
