Question: Hello. A couple of questions about this bike. (1)Is this available for transport, or are you looking for a quote? [A LOT of people do this, so I like to know--if that IS the case, I'd be happy to provide you with a quote. I just like to know what I'm working on.] (2)What are your preferred dates for transport? I look forward to your reply. I am fully licensed & insured, including "full coverage" cargo insurance. Best regards, "Greyhound" (Kelly Freight Services) (8/25/2009)
Response: I am searching for quotes to figure out if I can purchse with ending up upside down in it. If I do the deal it could be sept. 4th at the earliest. (8/25/2009)
Response: Hi & thanks for getting back to me--I appreciate your honesty. Unfortunately, I'll be closer to the delivery end than the pick-up end by the 4th. ;-) (My next midwest run won't be until late September.) If you win & I can be of service at that point, I can provide you with a definite quote of $425.00. If I may recommend & if you DO purchase, please be sure whoever you choose: (1)Is USDOT licensed (including "motor vehicle" transport specified in the license); (2)Carries cargo insurance. Both are required by federal law if someone is transporting "for hire". Best regards, Tony K. ("Greyhound"--Kelly Freight Services) (8/25/2009)
Response: when is the latest you could pick it up on this trip? (8/25/2009)
Response: Hi. I'd say that the absolute latest I could pick-up on this trip would be September 2nd. I should be out of New England by the 1st, actually, but I can stay an extra day & make the time up on my way west if it will help you. Please let me know if we can make that work; if so, I'll enter my bid. Best regards, Tony K. ("Greyhound"--Kelly Freight) (8/25/2009)
Response: I will call the seller tonight and see if I can wire or paypal the money for the bike. I will contact you back tomorrow. If so do I need to make a deposit.
Thanks,
Mark (8/25/2009)
Response: Hi, Mark. I personally don't need a deposit to hold space for your bike. The U-ship system works like this. If the seller will agree to accept payment via wire or pay-pal (& the bike ready in time for me to get it on this trip), let me know. I'll place a formal bid, outlining all the services I provide. If you accept the bid, you'll be asked (through U-ship) to pay a deposit of about $52.00. The balance will be due upon delivery. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'll definitely keep space available until I hear from ou tomorrow. Thanks & best regards, Tony K. (8/25/2009)
Question: Hi, Mark. This is a follow-up to see if you had any luck with the seller. Please let me know at your earliest convenience. Best regards, Tony K. ("Greyhound"--Kelly Freight Services) (8/26/2009)
Response: I was unable to reach him by phone last night. Still trying today. (8/26/2009)
Response: OK. I'll can keep it open until this afternoon. Please try to keep me posted. Best regards always, Tony K. (8/26/2009)
Response: hey Tony I am good, Will have deal finalized by monday. (8/26/2009)
Response: Hey, Mark--You're better than "good"! Getting it through that quick is more like "Awesome". Now I'll do my part & place a formal bid. If you can hang out long enough, you'll see it. If you accept (& I assume you intend to), I'll call you as soon as the contact info comes through. Thanks again!! Best regards, Tony K. (8/26/2009)
