Response: Last Carrier fell through. Never showed up at two scheduled pick up dates. You going to be around South Carolina anytime soon? (6/12/2008)
Response: I am not sure of the EXACT DATE but no matter what it will be NO LATER than the 1st FRIDAY in JUNE or it might even be sooner but I dont want to get your hopes up for that but like I said NO LATER THAN THE 1st FRIDAY. I do understand how hard this is to get a CARRIER that you can trust or does what they say they are going to do. If you get a chance check out this USHIP EDUCATIONAL LINK it has a lot of INFO and also it talks about DOT AUTHORITY which I have. Let me know if those dates I talked about will work, plus you talked about a GARAGE in Clifton Park, is it open on weekends? Here is that link to check out,www.uship.com/vehicles/articles/choosing-an-auto-transporter/ (5/22/2008)
Response: The timing works for me. I am just anxious to get the car. Garage is open some saturdays but not on sundays. My buddy's dad is the owner of the garage so if you have to deliver on a saturday then i can speak with him to see if he can be there that day but no promises. During the week would be ideal. Thanks for the link. (5/22/2008)
Response: I am sure you are the pictures look like its a great car. I will bid this for you when it gets closer to the date if OK or I can do whenever. (5/22/2008)
Response: The sooner you make the bid the better. I just want to lock someone in so i don't have to deal with answering other BIDS. And if for some reason you cancel i am stuck with no carrier because i have ignored them cause of our arrangement. How bout bidding by the end of this weekend?? Does that work for you? (5/22/2008)
Response: works for me I will do it by the weekend (5/22/2008)
Response: awesome (5/22/2008)
Response: I am having a problem finding a load back south to do this for you by the first of the week so I dont know if you can wait until I get there but it doesnt look like I will get there until closer to the end of the week. What should I do? (5/24/2008)
Response: Any news on submitting a bid? (5/27/2008)
Response: I am sitting in Schroon Lake as of today and dont know when I will find something to head SOUTH. I had a guy today cancel a shipment so I have to wait and see what comes up to head in your direction. I have no problem doing this its just the time frame I think wont work for you. If I can get out of here by Thursday I will gladly do this for you or if you can wait but I dont know if you can do that. (5/27/2008)
Question: I am leaving for Lake George in the morning but I dont have room for anything, my next trip North will be in about 12 days and if you can wait until then I can mostlikely do it for you then, sorry that the other guy fell through but a lot of that is going on since the DOT is coming down hard on the NON COMPLIANT CARRIERS. They dont want to take the chance of getting stopped and be fines up to $10,000.00 dollars, not saying that is what happen here but its a major reason why this happens. Let me know and if I dont answer right away its because I will be on th eroad (6/12/2008)
Question: I did some checking and see I was right on with what I was talking about, Let me know about the 12 to 14 day thing. Heck if I knew where you were in NY we could do a beer while I am up there on Sunday. (6/12/2008)
Response: I am good with the 12-14 days. I am just tired of dealing with everyone else. You seem dependable and trustworthy. When you are ready submit your bid and lets get some dates arranged. Haha that would be good. I dont live in NY though, i live in boston. Car is going to my buddys garage to get some work done before i go and pick it up. (6/14/2008)
Response: Ok when I know a definate date which will be in about 2 weeks I will let you know. I am actually staying in a Holiday Inn in Waltham tonight since I am dropping off a bike in Boston in the morning. I will keep in touch. (6/14/2008)
