Questions for this shipment: 

Question: I provide custom enclosed hauls but this distance and service is expensive. Nothing rides above your vehicle to leak on it. It rides as if it's still sitting in the garage. Please check my feedback and advise...Thanks, Steve (5/1/2008)
Response: Thanks Steve. If there is a way for you to provide a quote for both enclosed and un-enclosed, that would be great. (5/1/2008)
Question: Hello. Do you have a target price? (5/1/2008)
Response: I am looking for the best price / serivce combination. I know this is probably going to cost me somewhere between $700 - $2000 but I have requested bids because I am no familar enough with auto shipping to know what a good price for this kind of distance is. Thanks. (5/1/2008)
Question: Thank you for the bid request. However, it will be a few weeks before I will be able to transport this for you. We offer open or enclosed transport in a custom car hauler. Thanks again, Kurt from Summit Transport LLC (5/1/2008)
Response: Waiting a few weeks for transport is probably ok; I will just need to make arrangements with the seller. He said he'd give me 2 weeks but if I needed more time just to let him know. I don't want to push my luck so I'd like to fall sometime within the next 4 weeks and 6 at the max. Thanks. (5/1/2008)
Response: We could pick it up in a day or two as we are located in central PA, but delivery would be in a few weeks 2-3. We would store it for you in our heated warehouse at no extra charge. My price would be $1800.00 which includes full value insurance. Do you want open or enclosed transport? Please let me know asap (as space fills up quickly) and I will place my formal bid at your direction. Thanks again, Kurt from Summit Transport LLC (5/2/2008)
Response: I would prefer enclosed transport top level. Thank you. (5/2/2008)
Response: This is a single level custom enclosed car hauler so nothing can go above your car. Are you ready to accept my bid? I am looking forward to adding to our long list of satisfied customers. Thanks again, Kurt from Summit Transport LLC (5/2/2008)

Question: I read something about printers. Are they yours also? Thanks again, Kurt from Summit Transport LLC (5/4/2008)
Response: Nope the printers aren't mine; just someone elese looking for transport that was commenting that perhaps we could share transport to reduce each other's costs. If you're interested in combining that with my shipment I would suggest contacting the individual that left the comment / question. I'm not going to try to make things more complicated by coordinating that. Thanks, - Mark (5/6/2008)

Question: Thanks for the bid request but I am currently servicing northern routes for some time. For informational purposes, though: with a vehicle that has a stainless finish you might want to refrain from having her covered if it goes open. A cover may cause chaffing that cannot be easily repaired. And tell the driver not touch the flux capacitor(just kidding....back to the future joke but serious about the finish):) (5/6/2008)
