Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello Shipper, Whats up with the trailor? If its just tires and bearings thats easy to fix. I do this all the time so that the boat is towable. You'll have to do this anyway in order to pull it down the road. Let me know. Thanks, Jay (7/13/2008)
Response: the trailer is very rusty and tires and bearings are bad. casey (7/13/2008)
Response: Casey, The issues with the tires and bearings is fixable, which I can have that done. As far as a rusty trailor, that doesn't mean much to me, I've pulled a lot of trailors compltely rusted out. But trailor can't have any breaks in the frame. My bid would be for towing, if you're looking to have this loaded on a flatbed be prepared to pay the price it involves. Let me know if I can help you with your boat transport. Thanks, Jay (7/13/2008)
Response: well i did not look at it it is on ebay and the seller said he would not tow it that far. thanks casey (7/13/2008)
Response: Casey, I can understand him saying that he wouldn't tow it that far since the TIRES AND BEARINGS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. As I said in my previous emails, THESE ITEMS ARE FIXABLE AND WILL HAVE TO BE DONE ANYWAY SO THAT YOU CAN GET IT TO THE LAKE. RUST ON A TRAILOR DOESN'T DECREASE THE TOWABILITY. I offered to have the tires and bearings replaced before transport. I don't think that the seller is in the transport business, and probably doesn't have a clue as to what can be done to get this boat to you. Thanks for your time, Jay (7/13/2008)
Question: what will it take to make this trailer road ready ? (7/13/2008)

Response: how long will you be there for casey (7/13/2008)
Response: I can put the bid in if you would like. If you accept I will wait if needed, let me know what you think. I can also load it on a trailer but there is no way I could do that for your target price. Thanks, Bryan (7/13/2008)
Response: what would be a price on a trailer thanks casey (7/13/2008)
