Question: Can this go right away? (4/26/2009)
Response: Yes, they are at the Harley dealer in Meridian. If the stoe is open, they can go. (4/26/2009)
Response: Did you have a target price? (4/26/2009)
Response: Yes, I was looking to be in the 700 range. I have two quotes close but have will not make a decision until tomorrow. The pickup will be easy. They are at the HDdealer in Meridian and the drop off will be at the HD in Hickory. Please let me know if you can do anything for us. We are not on a strict time schedule just would like to have by the end of May. Thanks, Alex (4/26/2009)
Question: Hello Shipper, We can pick up between the 4th and 7th with delivery in 5-10 days for $800. This is Enclosed transport that includes soft tying, blanket padding, along with full insurance coverage. Let me know if this works for you so I can place my formal bid and reserve the space in our trailer. Thank you, Michael Frear. (4/26/2009)
Response: Thank you for bid. I had budgeted 700 for the shipping. Is there any wiggle room? I believe that my insurance will cover most damage, what insurance do u provide. I do have a bid for 710 but would like to use a smaller company. Please let me know your thoughts and we will make a decision tomorrow. The bikes are at HD in Meridian and are ready to go. Thanks again and hope to hear from you soon. Thanks Alex (4/26/2009)

I use only Soft Touch Tie Downs,and all shipments are fully covered with professional moving quilts. I provide 24 hr a day tracking to all clients VIA Verizon Cell. Please check out my 100% POSITIVE feed back from all previous clientele. I can ship this for $1000 door to door. I will submit a formal bid at this time. I look forward to hearing from you & I hope to earn your business. At Strictly Business ltd, we exceed your shipping expectations. Thank You For Your Time. TIM/SBM Inc. (4/26/2009)
Response: Hi Tim, We have had bids of 700 to 800. We are looking for a safe transport but are needing to budget. This will be from door of HD in Meridian to door of HD in Hickory. If you find a lower possibility please let me know. Thanks Alex (4/26/2009)
Response: Hello Alex. Thank You For Your Reply! I was on a roll when I put in my bid on your shipment, and I didn't really see the fact that your shipment provided a dock at both ends,MY APOLOGIES. That does make the shipment a bit more accommodating, even though I do have a lift gate. I see the QUOTES in the Q&A's that you have, and I see the only other bid is @ $1200, which IS HIGH. I can adjust my bid to $850.00 but that would be my lowest price which I could ship these bikes for. If your interested in shipping your two bikes for $425.00 each, Fully Enclosed, and Professionally, please let me know and I can resubmit my bid at that time. I do hope to earn your business. Thank You For Your Time Alex..... TIM/SBM Inc. (4/26/2009)
Response: Hey Tim, I do have 2 other bids thru moving companies but we like what you have and you have been very responsive. What time frame will you be on ? I used to work at the shop where they sit now and can promise that they are very helpful. Let me know your schedule. Thanks, Alex (4/26/2009)
Response: Hello Alex, I'm glad you appreciate my 100% POSITIVE feed back from my previous clients. I move many,many H D's each year and it has always gone flawlessly. The E track system for anchoring the soft touch tie downs to the floor has been flawless. One thing on my schedule Alex - Here on Uship things are Very Fluid, and I have picked up several shipments since we spoke yesterday. The only thing that means is, I would have to continue on past where your Bikes sit @ the Harley Dealer in ID, and deliver these few bikes I just Won on Bid in St.Louis to Portland,OR and then deliver in Seattle,WA as well before I come back to Meridian,ID. I live in Spokane so I would just come down 95 out of CDA and get your bikes in Meridian,ID Between May 2nd and May 5TH and deliver between 5/8 and 5/11 . If your schedule is quicker than that let me know and I can see what I'm able to work out. CUSTOMER SERVICE IS MY #1 CONCERN. I'll be on line this evening about 9 or 10pm Eastern time and see what U say. (4/27/2009)

I have many requests for shipping items for clients, but I was waiting to see what you had decided (IF YOU WANTED ME TO SUBMIT AN $850 BID) before I started in on the requests, since I was talking/TXTING with you first before all these requests came in today.
