Questions for this shipment:

Question: Hello, My driver will be making a return trip to FL during the week of 10/15. We could pick up and deliver all within that same week if you could wait that long.(?) If so, what is your target price? Thanks and look forward to your business, V :) (9/27/2007)

Response: Its taken a week for the shipper to finally get everything ready on there end so time isn't as much of an issue any more as it was. Target will be based on bids and shipper credentials in the profiles and of course their feedback. I won't necessarily take the low bid but rather the one I feel the most comfortable with. (9/27/2007)

Response: Sounds like a great plan to me. Please check out our updated profile page to learn about our recent changes. Also keep an eye out for our current feedback entries, as they may give you insight as to how Jason and myself conduct business. Still planing the route so I will leave you a bid once I can confirm a few more shipments. Thanks for your consideration, Vanessa :) learsr1 (9/27/2007)

Response: Noticed you had not bid. Please place a bid and use a reasonable expiration on it. I am seeing several bidder only use 1-2 day expiration but I have 10 days on the listing. (9/28/2007)

Question: What is your target price? (9/27/2007)

Response: Target will be based on bids and shipper credentials in the profiles and of course their feedback. I won't necessarily take the low bid but rather the one I feel the most comfortable with. (9/27/2007)

Response: We need need approximate time frames to know if we will have a truck in your area. We can appreciate you not accepting low bid, however if we can build a trip around your Bike than everyone is happy as we are able to share in the savings that can create. We are new to USHIP (please see recent and new feedback) but we have been delivering bikes and quads for Power Sports stores out of MI all over the US for 8 years, we know how to take care of your bike and treat your bike and you with respect. Please advise, on pu and delivery dates, Thanks Terry (9/27/2007)

Response: Both pickup and delivery dates are flexible. I'm all for combining shipments to make things better for the carrier and better my cost as well. Delivery date will be one of the other considerations as to who gets the bid. However, it is also one that is of the least concern. (9/27/2007)

Question: Hi , I can pick up the bike and accessories on Thursday, Oct 4th, I am somewhat flexible on the time of day. Delivery to Ga 24-48 hrs after loading. Bike will be transported in enclosed cargo trailer secured and insured. My bid in the amount of $335 is below for your consideration. Thanks,rick (Knightmoves4u) (9/27/2007)

Response: Watch your bidding dates. I see several are only using 1-2 days but the listing is 10 days. (9/28/2007)

Question: Hi, please ignore the "open trailer" under service type for my bid of $335. It is definitely an Enclosed trailer. thanks,rick (knightmoves4u) (9/27/2007)

Response: Read your profile and saw the equipment. No problem. (9/28/2007)

Question: Hello shipper. I notice your complaint of shippers only having 1-2 days expiration on their bids. Just for your information. As for us we are passing through your pickup area today heading to FL with a load and have one spot left(the reason for the cheap price I offered). We won't be back in this area for a couple of months because our next runs we have scheduled are out west and back to FL so it is not feasable to have a bid out there for 8 more days that a shipper may accept that the service provider can't fulfill. Most service providers use their own web sites and other advertising to get the loads that they haul to make money then use U-ship to fill an empty spot on their run that they have. That is why you see a lot of service providers place a bid with a 10 day expiration date on it and then cancel the bid in a day or two, because they got the spot filled that they were trying to fill from another shipper. Hope this information helps. Have a Great Day!! Gary, All In One Transport (9/28/2007)

Question: Good afternoon...we will be heading back to FL around the 19th of Oct. We would like to earn your business. You can see our feedback and profile. We would like to place a formal bid, but need to know if pick up and delivery points are availabe on weekends and if there are certain time frames. Thank You.......Dave (10/1/2007)

Response: The bike still needs to be shipped. I have been in no hurry so that someone could schedule it in with there existing run and make it more profitable for themselves and hopefully cheaper for me. As far as delivery in Alpharetta that can be at any hour of the day or night. The pickup though really needs to be during the daylight hours. The pickup in Shelbyville is at a farm not far from the interstate and there is plenty of room for large vehicles from what I am told. The shipper though is a widow and would prefer a daylight pickup. Not sure about lighting at night so this may be another reason for the daylight pickup. (10/1/2007)

Response: Thank you for your response. We do prefer to pick up during daylight hours. We would be picking up somewhere between the 19th and 21st. We will place formal bid. Thanks again!! (10/1/2007)

Response: Just make sure it doesn't expire in 24 hours like so many others have done. (10/1/2007)

Response: Not a problem!! We are booking for the future so that we can combine our annual hunting trip to MI along with business. We want a secured run home now to FL so that we can have vacation time as well. Thank You!! (10/1/2007)

Question: Hi! Check Out My Ratings By Clicking On My Name! Heading To Atlanta From Ohio This Week And Could Use Some Gas Money! I Can Bring This Along With Me On My 4x8 Flatbed Trailer With Softies & Tiedowns For $249 Cash Up Front! Please Let Me Know Right Away If This Works For You And I'll Submit A Bid While I Still Have Room For You! Thanks! Dave (10/3/2007)

Response: Sorry but cash up front, no insurance, not being a commercial carrier and open trailer, I'de have to say no thanks. Thanks for the offer though. (10/3/2007)

Question: so many bid 24 hr becouse the low bids that they give is becouse they are passing by. What $$$ are you looking for sence you have passed some very resonoble bids.I am comming through next week. Terry CRI123 (10/3/2007)

Response: I've passed some up because of questionable feedback, insurance status or other reasons from the lack of information in their profile. There was also an issue at first that the bike wasn't ready for shipping. I wasn't in any hurry though and this also allows carriers more time to arrange their shipments. The best offer I had of $245 expired literally 3 hours before I had confirmation that the bike was ready. (10/4/2007)

Response: i will be able to bid in a few days. Terry CRI123 (10/4/2007)

Question: What's the heigth? (10/4/2007)

Response: Not sure of the exact height. I would assume its in the area of 60". There is a windshield on this bike but it's only 3/4 and not a full size windshield. (10/4/2007)

Response: We have a van enroute back and wanted the measurements to see whether it would fit inside. Our inside clearance is 48". I don't believe we will be able to ship this with the windshield on it. (10/4/2007)

Response: There is no one at the origin that would be mechanically inclined to remove the winshield. Only person there is a widow. (10/4/2007)

Response: I have had to remove windshields and mirrors on previous shipments without any problems. If you would agree to put it back on once we deliver it, we can match the lowest bid and have it to you by Saturday. (10/4/2007)

Response: Place your bid if you are certain it will fit. I'm not sure that even with the mirrors removed that it will fit under 48". I searched the web and I can't find anyone that has a height measurement on the bike. (10/4/2007)

Response: I placed the bid under GXC Transport Solutions. I look forward to serving you. Gary (10/4/2007)
