Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Could you please let me know what you are looking to pay for this transport? Thank you. (7/25/2008)
Response: I was offered a quote of $3500 by a shipping company for transport but am worried that I will not be able to ship these as that is outside my price range. I'm hoping that someone is able to transport these as a partial load in a truck that is making multiple deliveries so that I can afford it. (7/25/2008)
Response: I have a bid for $2175.00?? Thank you. (7/30/2008)
Question: Shipper, is curbside delivery acceptable? (7/26/2008)
Response: Perhaps, I will have to see what the parking situation is at the delivery point. Will there be only one driver or will there be more than one? (7/26/2008)
Response: There will most likely be one driver, who will unload the pallets on the curbside/driveway. (7/28/2008)
Question: Wow! one lowered bid by over $3000.00! Why were you not given that price to begin with? (7/26/2008)
Response: Guess they were just trying to get as much as possible! (7/27/2008)
Response: That would have been a good profit margin. Good luck in your selection. Dan (7/27/2008)
Question: i dont live on my computer you did not give me enought time to answer your questions, please dont do that to any one on uship, give at lease 24 hours. thanks good luck on getting your items ship. (7/26/2008)
Response: thanks for letting me know but the reason I declined the bid was not because you did not get back to me. I got lower bids from people with better feedback that's all. (7/27/2008)
