Question:
6/19/2011
We can pick this up on monday night or tuesday and delivery soon after for a great price. We are from Iowa and can easily do this. Please take a moment to review our feedback and you will see the service you can expect to recieve from us.Report a Violation
Response: Just got your note - appreciate the info. Picking it up that soon would be nice, but the cashier's check that I sent is still in transit (went out in the mail on Saturday). I'm almost certain that the seller won't let it go before the check gets there (I probably wouldn't either). I'm not in a huge hurry on it. Will you guys be back in that neck of the woods anytime in the future? Thanks, Dan [contact information removed]6/19/2011In Violation
Response: : We won't be back down this way until late July. Would that work? Or if you want to get in contact with the seller and see what they would do. Thanks6/19/2011Report a Violation
Response: I'll give them a call, but I'm doubtful that the check will arrive by then, and I'm almost certain they won't want to let it go until payment arrives. I'll call them and will get back to you as soon as I know more. If it doesn't work out, I'll keep looking or we could wait until you're back that way. I'd rather get it up here before late july as I'd like to use it to scout our crops yet this season. Can you give me a ball park idea of what you would charge to get it up here? I'm new at this so maybe that estimate needs to be a formal bid, not sure. I already got one red flag on my last email - I included my phone number and email address. I guess that's not the thing to do . . . rookie mistake I guess. Thanks, Dan6/19/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Yes that was a rookie mistake on here lol, but thats life, we live and learn. Our price would be $583.21 A week or two after the 4th of july we could possibly make another trip.6/19/2011Report a Violation
Response: Thanks for the info. I haven't been able to talk to the seller tonight, but I'll try them again in the morning. As I mentioned, I'm guessing Mon/Tues will be too soon, but we'll see. I'd sure like to get it home before mid-July, but we'll see what other offers come through. Thanks for the great communication. Dan6/19/2011Report a Violation
Response: : your very welcome dan! keep us posted. and we would like to make you aware to not pay extra for insurance as all truckers need to carry coverage that will already cover your item no matter what, except for household moves. 6/19/2011Report a Violation
Response: Just a heads up that I left the seller another voicemail this morning. No callback yet. I think our chances of pulling this one off during this trip are declining. Will let you know if/when I know more. Thanks, Dan6/20/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Keep us posted. We are still in Florida. So you might get lucky.6/20/2011Report a Violation
Response: Thanks for the update. For some odd reason, I wasn't able to get ahold of the seller today. Probably no big deal, but I'll try them tomorrow. I'm hoping that check arrives Tues/Wed. Any update on your plans. I think I saw that you were having some vehicle work done . . . By the way, if they get the check before you get out of the area, I will definitely have you stop by and pick it up. Thanks, Dan6/20/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Yes we are having a new engine put in our truck. They should be done with it tomm/wednesday and then we will be hitting the road. We thank you for the consideration and it will be our pleasure to do the shipment for you.6/20/2011Report a Violation
Response: Hello. Just wanted to update you on a couple of things. First, the seller received the payment that I sent today, so the ATV can be picked up anytime. How are things progressing with the engine install? Second, I received a new bid today at a lower price. Do you guys have any room on your bid are you pretty firm? Hope the truck is up and going soon. Look forward to hearing how things are progressing. Thanks, Dan6/21/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Hi Dan. The truck is almost done. It should be ready to rock and roll tomm! So we should be able to pick it up tomm night. I think our price is more than fair and we are only talking a few bucks in price difference. I hope we are still good to go and it will be our pleasure to help out another Iowan. And also our price is for no help loading and unloading as we will take care of all that ourselves. thanks6/21/2011Report a Violation
Response: Thanks for the reply. I'm guessing you are about tired of sitting and ready to get moving. Let's touch base tomorrow AM. I would like you to move the Polaris if you are able to go tomorrow. The other shipper is able to pick it up this week, so let's see how we get along. Let's hope for the best on the truck. By the way, is it within the uship rules to reveal your name?? Just curious who I'm talking to. Thanks, Dan6/21/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Yes we are very tired of sitting in Florida! Wanna get back to Iowa and the nice 70 degree weather. I will look for your response in the AM. If the truck is done tomm would the seller be able to meet us late tomm night? And as for picking it up this week, we are able to do that too! My name is Ashley and the driver's are Joe & James. Thanks6/21/2011Report a Violation
Response: Hello, Ashley. Appreciate the info. I will call the seller in the morning to see if they'd be available tomorrow evening. Any idea of time? How late are you guys guessing (I know it's a just a guess until the truck is done)? If you do pick it up tomorrow evening, any estimate of when you'll be in IA to drop it off? Thanks, Dan6/21/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Your very welcome Dan! I honestly can't say a time to be honest. Not until the engine is done and good to go. Sorry. If not tomm night it would be thursday morning. And as for delivery, it would be within 5 days of pickup. They have our local fair they would like to get back for as they are missing it already and then would deliver next week on monday. Would this work?6/21/2011Report a Violation
Response: Good morning. Read your note about the fair - wouldn't happen to be The Mighty Howard County Fair, would it? I think Monday delivery would be just fine if the pickup time works for the seller. I'll call the seller later this morning. Seems like everytime I call in the morning, I wake them up. I'll give them a few more hours. Thanks, Dan6/22/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Yes Sir that would be the one. As for waking up your seller, they are an hour ahead of you so that's a little odd. I guess we shouldn't have said how much we would have done the shipment for and then we wouldn't be getting low balled by someone else. 6/22/2011Not in Violation
Response: Hello. I have another shipper that is interested in the load. Picked up tomorrow AM and delivered to me this weekend for a lower shipping price. I'm not sure how they could know your bid since that was information that you and I just emailed back and forth. Unless each of you shippers can see all email correspondence. I'm not sure how uship has things set up. I think I'll accept their bid, but I thought I'd give you guys the opportunity to revisit this shipment before I accept anything. Any thoughts or ideas?

Response: William - Thanks for contacting me about this shipment. At this point, I have a bid for $583.21. The only part that we're still working on the shipment date. That particular shipper can't pick up the ATV until the week after the 4th of July, and I'd like it here a little sooner if possible. If you have any interest, feel free to let me know. If not, no worries. Thanks, Dan6/19/2011Report a Violation
Question:
6/22/2011
Dan, I just had a change in my schedule. If you give this atv to pickup tomorrow I would be able to deliver it to you over the weekend. Please let me know what price you were looking at to move this thing.Report a Violation
Response: Hello. I just got off the phone with the seller, and they said that in order to work with their schedule, the ATV would need to be picked up by noon tomorrow if tomorrow is indeed the shipping date. If that worked with your schedule, I would be willing to go with you guys for $480. The seller asked if a call could be made an hour or so before the driver arrived so they could be ready for the driver. I told the seller that I would make that request. Would that be possible? You could either call me or the seller, whichever works for you. Thanks, Dan6/22/2011Report a Violation
Response: : I will call the seller no problem and we will hustle to get there on time before the noon tomorrow. However price is a little bit of problem, because by the time u s h i p takes there fees I will only be left with about 400 bucks. So I would need minimum of 525 to make this happen.6/22/2011Report a Violation
Response: Glad to hear you could contact the seller prior to arrival. I think that price seems fair, but before we confirm this, do you have an estimate of when the ATV would be delivered? Sunday anytime after 10 AM would be best (even late evening), but I may be able to work something out if it would need to be on Saturday. Thanks, Dan6/22/2011Report a Violation
Response: : Yes, we will actually contact the seller today to schedule accordingly. I would like to tell you an exact date and time, but I don't have that yet, but we will work with you as much as we can, you can check our feedback to see what kind of customer service we uphold. As soon as we pickup we will have a much better time schedule for you. I will rebid now at 525.6/22/2011Report a Violation
Question:
6/22/2011
Dan, are you still interested? I am putting together my schedule for my driver for tomorrow and it help if I can confirm this load.Report a Violation
