Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hi. I'm interested in delivering your houseplants. I was wondering about the pickup dates... you have listed 10/15 to 10/14. I wasn't certain, is it these 2 days that they must be picked up or is there a typo in the pickup dates? Thanks. Steve (9/26/2008)
Response: Hi Steve, The pickup dates(14th or 15th) depend upon how many days would it take for the plants to be transferred. I would be reaching Austin on 16th Oct, so i would like them to be delivered on 17th. Also, it would be really helpful if you could let me know the best possible way to pack them so that they dont get damaged on the way :-) Kindly let me the price quote. Thanks a lot! Anuja. (9/27/2008)
Response: Hi Anuja. Boxes that fit around the potted portion work nicely for transport (gives them a more sturdy base so they are less likely to tip over). My price would be $495. My open travel dates for October are the 9th to 14th, and 23rd to 28th. It would be possible for me to pickup on the 14th, but I would likely have to return home (NW Iowa) for several days before I could deliver ((either the 21st or 23rd). I would like to do this transport for you but delivery would not be as timely as I would like. I could care for the plants inside my house while I'm home. I'm hopeful that you can find someone else that could deliver in a more timely manner. If you still wish for me to bid, please let me know. Best wishes on this transport. Steve Mulder, Sibley IA. (9/28/2008)
Response: Hi Steve! Thanks a lot for the helpful tip on packing! I am fine with the price too. Pickup date(anytime from 12th-14th Oct) is excellent. I think it should be fine with the delivery date anytime after 23rd......the only constraint is most probably I have to travel to Dallas on 20th and I am not sure if I could make it for the delivery date, but since it is still not sure.....I would want to hold on. That would have been gr8 if I could have found someone else who could deliver on desired dates....but I am still interested in transpoting my plants with you. Please let me know if we can wait for a clearer picture or if you have any problems holding onto it for a couple of days. Hope everything works out positively. Thanks again, Anuja. (9/30/2008)

Question: i am coming through your area headed for Austin and can do this for you for 300 please let me know if you have any questions (9/27/2008)
Response: Hi Please let me know how many days would it take to transfer the plants. We would be reaching Austin on 16th Oct, so i would like them to be delivered on 17th (Tentative) I am flexible for the pick up dates -14th or 15th Oct. I am fine with the price.Also i would like to have a receipt for my reimbursement. If you could, kindly let me know the best possible way to pack them so that they dont get damaged on the way! Thanks a lot! (9/27/2008)
Response: Unfortunately our routes have been changed and I will not have a truck in that area on those dates, the closest I can do would be next week and that I imagine is too early, Sorry. (9/27/2008)
Response: Hi! Please let me know do you have any dates of travel around 12th Oct -15th Oct for Pick up? I am flexible with the delivery date to be anytime! Please reply asap. Thanks! (10/6/2008)
