Question: DONT FORGET ABOUT U-SHIP FEES. FRED (11/7/2007)
Response: are the uship fees included in the $343 bid that replaced the cancelled $300 bid? One other question...would you need a physical copy of the coggins? I have a digital version I could email or I could get the folks in NC to print another copy. Would you need any other documentation with the horse? Also, would you need payment on the front end, delivery, or is it actually paid through uship?
(this is my first time using Uship)
I'm still waiting to hear back from the barn up here to double check they're ready for the horse. If I don't hear by 6:30 am, I'll just make a plan and straighten things out on my end.
Thanks,
Hannah (11/7/2007)
Response: HELLO HANNAH. SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO GET BACK. IT IS 12;40. I WILL NEED A COPY OF COGGINS AND HEALTH CERTIFICATE. I WOULD ASSUME THAT DOES INCLUDE U-SHIP FEES. THAT IS WHY I ENTERED IT THAT WAY.I HOPE THIS WILL PAN OUT BECAUSE THE HORSE WILL BE A DOOR TO DOOR DEAL FOR YOU . I DONT HAVE ANYTHING GOING UP THAT WAY SO HE WILL GET TO RIDE BY HIMSELF.I AM ROLLING OUT OF HERE REAL EARLY,SO DONT BE AFRAID TO E-MAIL . I CHECK IT ABOUT EVERY HALF HOUR. HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON. FRED (11/7/2007)
Response: Oh No! I only saw your message about payment on delivery -- and didn't see this about a health certificate before I accepted the bid! All I have is a coggins. What does a health certificate entail? I've never shipped a horse before...so I've never been through this. I'll try to call around to see if I can find someone to do it, but what if I can't find a vet to do it on short notice?
Since I've accepted your bid, I've got your number and I'll try to give you a call in a bit -- as I'll be at the barn for the next couple of hours and away from the computer.
Yikes!
Hannah (11/8/2007)
Response: SORRY. PAYMENT WILL BE DUE AT THE TIME THEPERSON THAT IS PAYING FOR THE TRANSPORT IS AVAIL. EITHER AT P/U OR DELIVERY. THE U-SHIP DEPOSIT HAS TO BE PAID IN ADVANCE. CASH , CERT.CHECK ,OR MONEY ORDER. ,FRED (11/7/2007)
