Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello, i have a 40ft flatbed gooseneck with ramps and winch. I can haul your buick, but i need you to understand that it will be alot of work to get those tires to air up, if they even will. If they do not the car will never make it up my ramps because they bottom will hit. I can make sure and bring three tires that will fit the car, and change the tires if i need too. The trip is just over 1000 miles and i charge $1.25 per mile. $1250 plus uship fees. That's a good deal considering the mileage and the work that will have to be done to get it loaded. Thanks, Robert. rhendricks1988 (5/24/2007)
Question: you can click on my name where i placed the bid and you can see my trailer and equipment and pictures. thanks again, rhendricks1988 (5/24/2007)
Question: hello, is this still available? i could do this for $800.00. let me know. (6/14/2007)
Response: HI there, Ok..I will accept your bid if you make one.. Can you ship it here soon? Also, you know it has flat tires , right? I mean it rolls and steers, but is not running, so you will need a winch to get it up on your flatbed. Thanks Dwayne (6/17/2007)
Question: DeWayne, We are communicating to you via, speech recognition software, because we're driving and cannot type so there may be some spelling errors. I am in Wyoming right now I have a flatbed and a winch and may be able to go pick up your vehicle, I may be able put on some tires So it could roll on the trailer considering the fact the other ones are probably too dry rotted to air up. I could do this for you for $950. Let me know as soon as possible, because I have others I'm a bid on to take up my space, time and fuel. Look forward to your quick response. Thank you for your time. John (6/22/2007)
Question: Good afternoon, I am in Billings Montana and would need to know pretty soon if you still need this car moved for I am heading to Arizona thank you (6/23/2007)
Response: Hi there, If you can do it for $800 I would accept your bid right away. Thanks for your interest! Lana and Dwayne (6/23/2007)
Response: Dwayne, the boss says I can't go dollar under nine but if it loads easy and with our equipment should I will knock a hundred off for you on delivery and do it for $800. I would need to confirm this within the next half hour since I am in Billings, Montana right now. I will be able to do it for you this weekend. Hope I can help you get your Buick. Hear from you soon, John (6/23/2007)
Response: Hi John, Thank you John, I appreciate the offer. I was about to just resell this on Ebay, but I also don't want you to have to return empty. I try to do right by the truckers who ship my items on Uship - just ask any of them. I don't know where those other emails were when you offered to do it for $800, but I would have accepted immediately (as mentioned) had I saw them. I don't know how but I missed them somehow...why wouldn't I hire you if I knew you accepted my price? Anyway, thanks John..please submit your bid and I will accept. I know this delivery will get you back home, and I am glad to oblige. Honestly, had you not bid on it one more time, I think I would have just relisted it on Ebay...already a headache and I haven't even recvd it yet. Honorably, Dwayne Velasquez (6/25/2007)
Response: Hi there I'm going to have to cancel my bids and head for Arizona without the car if I don't hear from you within the hour I'll have to take another job in that direction. So if you want to get moved to your place I'll have to hear from you. Thank you (6/23/2007)
Question: Hi, I might be able to do this for you for the $800 but i will not know until monday morning.I would pick it up on thursday.If this sounds good to you i will place my bid monday if i'm able. Thanks Gary please read my feedback MAGNUM70RT (6/23/2007)
Response: Sounds like a Plan...Gary. I have another bid on it but i will wait until I hear from you on Monday before i accept any bids. If you can do it for my offered price, I will hire you. I have read your feedback. Thanks for your interest Dwayne (6/24/2007)
Response: Thanks Dwayne i should know by 9am your time monday.Gary (6/24/2007)
Question: Service Providers Beware! We have some time wasters here, they strung me out for a day and a half waiting in Montana while I could've been working on another project somewhere else, made promises and never kept them, just use me to lower the bids to $800 so he could get it done cheaper. He e-mailed me and said if I put a bid in for $800 he would take it immediately. Now that there is a bit on for $800 somebody else may think they can do it cheaper and get the job and it looks like this project could be an easy job, but it's not. It's not worth the hassle headache or the games this guy plays. Read the questions. He communicated with me back and forth and said I had the job that pulled the sheet out. you won't be able to read the communications between him and I outside the question form.... the guy will waste your time and drag you around and around. This guy DeWayne is not honorable. Your word is your bond, and if you don't have that you have nothing in life. Dewayne, there is (6/24/2007)
Response: First of all, this Guy is clearly just mad that I did not accept his $1000 bid. I told him I could do it for $800, but he never submitted a bid - nor did he ever respond to this counteroffer. Now he is upset that someone else is probably going to bid $800... Read his comments..he is complaining about the job. Look, this car is hardly worth saving as is and I am trying to do just that. I paid $500 for the car as it is and anything more on shipping would just not be worth it. If I am not an honorable person, then my feedback would not be what it is. I seriously did not try in any way to or intend at all to "string" anyone along, and how he thinks that I did so is beyond me. I never said..let me think about it , etc. or anything to string him along. I said "Put in a bid for 800 and I will accept. He never did that, period. Now I am to blame for this somehow? He is lying about my making "promises" which i broke. NorthernHaulers...tell the truth, will you? You are slandering me (6/24/2007)
Response: Be careful here man.... the facts of the facts. I sent you a question, saying I could do it for $950 this weekend. You e-mailed me back I counter offered $899 you then chiseled me down to $800 saying that if I put a bid in for $800 you would immediately take it and I did just so put in a bid for $800. Not once but twice, read the facts. And that was yesterday. Last night somebody else said they possibly could do it for $800 on Monday that they would get back to you and you returned their question with a response this morning insinuating that you had another bidder standing for $800 but you would wait till Monday to hear from him. All you had to do is send me a response back to my three e-mails saying you changed your mind or that you wanted to pull me along. That's a game you're playing. That's why I canceled my bids, and it's back over $1000 an you don't have a confirmed pickup. Maybe you need to reflect the little it or read back if you don't have any reflection. Those are ga (6/24/2007)
Response: Wait a minute..are you trying to tell me that you did put a bid for $800? If that were true, then why didn't I just accept your bid? No...you tried to highball me and now you are mad that someone might do it for 800. The truth is, you NEVER bid 800 or I would have accepted it on the spot!! You KNOW This!! WHy would I wait for someone else to bid 800 if you already bid 800? Anyone reading this can see what you bid...! Its like you are completely referencing another pickup.. Look, I don't want to fight about this..I just want to get the car. I wish you would have bid 800 like requested, but you did not. Those are the facts. Now you are trying to slander me and tell other people that I am a time waster? The only person who wasted time was you... If you would have bid 800 to begin with, I would have accepted..Lickety-Split and this would never have happened. I'm not trying to be difficult, but you are now trying to slander me because I did'nt take your higher bid. Thats wrong (6/24/2007)
Question: The truth will find you out. (6/24/2007)
Question: DeWayne, I'm not mad about the job not at all on the contrary. It's about people keeping their word (you) using them and wasting other people's time. I'm actually glad I didn't waste any time on this project that would have been a headache in more ways than one obviously showing its true colors. Now you don't even have a bid for someone to do it. When for $800 it could've been done a ready. Good luck with your wool blanket. Have a good day. (6/24/2007)
Response: Look, I am actually in Iraq right now and there must be a delay or something, but I di not notice your 800 dollar bid. I stand corrected...I am sorry, but I only respond when I USHIP emails me your bid offers.. I do not know how I missed your 800 dollar bid. I apologize. I wish you weren't upset about it or I would honor your bid first, as I see that you made the bid first. Unfortunatley, all I saw was the 899 bid. I guess USHIP will email me the instances of your 800 dollar bid later. I am sorry but I just now noted your earlier bids. If you would have pointed this out to mne calmly instead of calling me a time waster...we would be doing business now. Now out of spite, you reraised the bid to 1000. I'm sorry, I just did not get the reference of you bid. I said I would accept your bid immediately if I recvd it... Well, I was not checking UShip because comms are spotty here and I cannot get on a computer until after work anyway..so I missed you bids. (6/24/2007)
Question: On this site it's all about being trustworthy being honorable and gaining somebody's trust and the most part, honesty. It's also a good guideline and rule of thumb in life. (6/24/2007)
Question: Hi, This is MAGNUM70RT i have to stand up for this gentleman! This person slandering you only bid his $800 AFTER i sent my question stating that i MAY be able to do this for you for $800 but would not know until Monday morning. It's the snooze you looze deal! I was the first to offer to do it for his target price and he said he would use me if i was able to do it. Now you snuck in after i said i may be able and BOOM you bid $800 and now causing a stink. I think we need to have Uship put time stamps on all these questions so people would see the facts and not side with someone who is a little upset! I hope this clears things up for some.This is a cut throut website because i have done some jobs cheap.People if one leg of your trip is empty you are loosing money and you have to remember this is business don't cut your throut you won't last long on here!! (6/24/2007)
Question: Dwanye this is MAGNUM70RT the boat i'm delivering will not fit on my trailer so i will not be able to bid on this for you! Thanks Gary (6/25/2007)
