Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Your price goal is too low. (1/26/2008)
Response: That is why you bid, right? Isn't that why UShip has that option, to place a bid? Or am I just extremely ignorant in thinking that they put the option in place to have people tell you their price is too low without bidding? Maybe I misunderstood it, or didn't see your bid. (1/26/2008)
Response: I personally find a waste of time to bid where the shipper wants shipping below cost. A bid requires that I keep a time and space open while the shipper studies other offers while telling you my opinion does not and it may help my fellow drivers. I looked at your bid becasue I am passing by. (1/26/2008)
Response: I usually use a shipping company that I receive good rates on. I changed the "book it now" to $500. I recently shipped an item weighing 1700 pounds and was much larger than these for around $600 to the same area. So, being 1000 pounds lighter, I felt as if someone could ship these for $500 easily, especially since it is just going down I-5. (1/28/2008)
Question: Hell & am interested in your shipment... What exactly are we shipping? ... THX (1/28/2008)
Response: Heart Pumps. (1/28/2008)
Question: Is your Freight able to be picked up tonight? Thanks Rich SS Expediting (1/28/2008)
Response: Yes, I suppose it may be able to. Would you have a lift gate? (1/28/2008)
Response: I have a ramp on my trailer (1/28/2008)
Response: Are you leaving tonight? Could we set it up later in the week? I'm a bit busy tonight, but if I had to, I could get it. It is in a storage unit, but would only take about 5 minutes to wheel it out. (1/28/2008)
Response: I am heading to Seattle tonight to pick up another piece and then heading for CA in The morning would that work for you. I know it is late but I need to be on the road tomorrow morning (1/28/2008)
Response: I would not mind, but I am still awaiting the check to clear for the payment of these items; that is why I put the pick up date for the first. It should not be a problem, but I would hate for it to not clear and have it already delivered. Are you going to be heading down there later? I could risk it for a cheaper quote. What price are you looking to charge? I had a "book it now" at $300, but just raised it. (1/28/2008)
Question: what would be the latest I can pick it up tonight? (1/28/2008)
Response: Around 7:30-8. The storage unit closes at 9. (1/28/2008)
Response: I will try my hardest to get there before then, I will make a call first. Thanks Rich (1/28/2008)
Response: Call me before anything happens. I am going to be very busy tonight. I would probably rather wait, as the payment for the items has not yet cleared, although I am sure it will. Anyhow, let me know. (1/28/2008)
