Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Is this the same boat listed twice here? I did bid on it on the other page for $1,000. If so you may want to remove the other ad but I put in the smae bid here (11/28/2005)
Response: Sorry, I thought I had denied your bid in the proper form. (11/28/2005)
Question: do you have any pics of the boat? when do you need this picked up? thanks, tim (12/1/2005)
Question: Hello again. If this sail boat is what i think it is, i can move it for you for under a thousand. still waiting for your reply. thanks, Tim (12/2/2005)
Response: Hello Tim, I have a number of options that I am jugling and amongst them is driver / hauler. I don`t feel that I have heard a quote yet that meets my pocketbook. (12/2/2005)
Question: Was the Thousand dollar bid you declined to high I noticed you declined it for OTHER reasons just wanted to be sure I bid in your range because that was a good bid. Thanks good luck and happy holidays (12/3/2005)
Response: Tim, I have a bid for 825.00 can you beat it ? Jeff (12/3/2005)
Question: I think there is some confusion on who you think is bidding I recieved an e-mail reffering to me as Jeff thats not my name. I am the one who bid a$1,000 (Drhauler) and was declined straight up. Its going to be tough to find (a Legal) transporter to do this for under $1,000 this time of year the weather is tough up there as you know. I see all have iether been declined or cx its just not worth the time for anyone at this time of the year to do it for under that amount I will rebid for that amount again but I think there is some real confusuion on who who is bidding this is the second time I have an e-mail from this bid in someone elses name. Good Luck and Happy Holidays (12/4/2005)
Question: Does this item still need to be shipped, if so I can pick up the boat/trailer on Thurs Dec 7th and deliver it to you Fri Dec 8th for $550.00 (I have to run this route on a emoty return trip anyway) (12/5/2005)
Response: I`m interested but you have no history. What`s your situation and why are you able to underbid your competitors? (12/5/2005)
Question: Eric I haul travel trailer all over the country mostly for FEMA, but this trip I have to pull a trailer to Houston and would be coming back empty, I would rather haul something back than to come back empty I have been hauling commercial and private cargo for 5 years. I have know history with uship simply because I have kust recently found out about this website. If you are interested please respond back asap so I can plan on this or not (12/5/2005)
Response: I prefer Jeff but I have been called worse than Eric. According to my uship advisor you have not made a bid , only an inquiry. So if you wish to make a bid , let`s get on with it. Second are there any hidden charges such as loading fees? (12/5/2005)
Question: Sorry about calling you Eric, I know you,re not Eric. (12/5/2005)
Question: Jeff, Is this ready to be pulled? Where does the lift requirement come into play? This is the last question I can think of and then I will put in the formal bid. (12/5/2005)
Response: It`s on a trailer so it can be pulled.....therefore no lift is required ( I didn`t check your mode of transportation ). If you pull it, would you be willing to monitor the bearings on the trailer? Are you insured? What kind of licensing do you have ? (12/5/2005)
Question: I am not sure why your turning my bids down, I am a DOt certified Transporter I carry insurance, I was rated by the DOT in my last inspection as outstanding, let me know what your looking for I am a bit confused, as far as price? Qualifications ? what give me some feedback please (12/5/2005)
Question: I just saw your question about doing it for $550.00, I dont know how this will come off to you but if I did jobs that I made only maybe 4200.00 profit in in a coiuple of days I could meet my operating expenses. My insurance is included full value is not my bag, I cover all my cargo with $100,000 and liabilty for 1 million. I need to get this done this week I see there is now way for that to happen and there is no way I can match $550.00. In fact I would be quite weary if I was you but that me good luck, take that bid thats the lowest I have seen for a job like that in a long while. Just asked yourself is cheaper better/ happy holidays I am gone (12/5/2005)
Question: Jeff, yes Ican take care of the bearings, I will be a Chey 1-ton dually and have a class B CDL, and I already have insurance for this type of product. I am leaving for Texas this morning, you can contact my wife via Email and she can then contact me, hope everything works ou and I can deliver your boat on Friday (12/6/2005)
Response: OK, but I need to hear an official bid. (12/6/2005)
Question: I read the Email that the last person wrote, obviously Uship must be this persons only source of income. I do this only so that I am not returning empty and can help supplement my fuel cost for hauling travel trailers. My monthly insurance cost are already factored in the cost of hauling the travel trailer, therefore I can give you a better rate. (12/6/2005)
Question: Jeff, Official bid is in, this is Dan's wife Laura, he is gone as you know so let us know as soon as you can. Thanks PS Yes he will watch the wheel bearings, etc. He has the things he needs with him to do so. (12/6/2005)
