Question: I can load this week,(thursday)Possibly wednesday and have it to you friday. Insured USDOT registered service provider $621.00 (4/15/2008)

Response: I am interested but still dealing with paperwork and US customs and would be unable to pick up the vehicle and bring it over to Canada until Friday the 24th or later. Would that work for you?
Does your price include all fees, taxes and insurance? Is a deposit required or payment by cheque in full upon receipt of the truck?
Thanks,
Karen (4/16/2008)

Response: Hello Karen, thanks for responding, Shipping quote is all inclusive,all fees,tolls (if any)are included no additional cost. You would have to pay a small deposit to accept my bid but that does not go to me, it goes to uship. Total bid minus the deposit would be due on delivery. Thanks Karen, Randy. P.S. If I can get another shipment going that way I will reduce this shipping quote if possible. (4/16/2008)

Response: Ok re: payment info.
What about the delay from your suggested dates? Are you flexible? I am importing the vehicle to Canada so there are delays/paperwork, plus my trip next week so I won't be able to accept delivery Tues-Thurs.
Thanks
Karen (4/16/2008)

Response: I will just wait and pick it up next week and deliver friday the 25th. Randy (4/16/2008)

Response: Ok, let me discuss your quote with my husband when I get home tonight and we will make a decision.
Thanks
Karen (4/16/2008)

Response: Ok, thats fine,thanks for responding, Randy (4/16/2008)

Response: Actually, my husband is a bit concerned about the idea that you might be driving all that way just for one vehicle. He runs his own business as well and believes it is important that you make adequate money on a job - which he doesn't think you could be doing for one vehicle. I really like the fact that with you I communicate directly with the driver, and your feedback is excellent. I am however quite flexible with the dates if it means you are able to make more than one shipment during this trip. Let me know if delivery next Friday really works for you. Thanks

Response: I have 2 other shipments lined up all going your way,just waiting for all to give the go ahead and then i will submit bids, I will be able to lower my offer just as soon as I get confirmation on the other two. Actually have 3 other offers besides yours and the ones who respond the quickest are the ones I will go with, yours is for sure if you decide to accept my bid when placed. I also have Another loadboard I could get auto's off of as well,this other loadboard you have to prove that you are a USDOT registered carrier to become a member. However at this time,there isn't anything on it going to where you are. I should know something tomorrow for sure. I appreciate your husbands concern about cost and Actually wish other shippers realized the cost of shipping anything with fuel prices as high as they are. Thanks for realizing this. When I submit a bid it will be lower then the quote given earlier. (4/17/2008)

Response: Hi Again
I just wanted to let you know that I am flexible on the delivery date as long as it is next Friday or after. I will return from my trip Thursday night and will be around and able to pick it up on the weekend or the following week. I will need to know the date/time fairly well because I need to get a ride over the border to meet you (I am in Canada), probably at the WallMart parking lot in Sault Michigan. Karen (4/17/2008)

Response: Ok, sounds good,Sorry I am so late getting back to you, just got my truck out of the shop today where it has been for 12 days. Randy (4/17/2008)

Response: 12 days! I assume that means it is good to go for safe reliable shipping again right? I would like to confirm the shipper and remove my posting by tomorrow, so please let me know when you will be able to pick up and deliver the vehicle and submit a formal bid by then. Thanks, Karen.

Response: Hi Karen, What happened was I was delivering a Jaguar down below indianapolis and my right rear dually tire blew, and tore off my fender and dented up the side of my truck. There was a recall on the tires which I didn't know about. So it took 12 days to get the parts ordered and the side of the box repaired. No damage was done to the Jaguar I was moving. Ok will make a formal bid today, Randy (4/18/2008)

Question: Karen, This shouldn't be a problem for you but I have 2 spaces to ship cars and 3 bids to fill the 2 spaces, whichever 2 gets accepted first will cancel the 3rd one out automaticly. Thanks Karen and hope to see you next friday or saturday, Randy (4/18/2008)

Response: Hi Randy. I am out of town from Tuesday until Thursday at midnight, but my cell number given should work at all times unless I am in the air or I might have to turn it off during my meetings. I have voice mail and will also check email in evenings. Friday afternoon or Sat a.m. delivery should be fine. I will need some notice (half day) to arrange a ride across the bridge, and the time it takes for me to get over there depends on traffic at the border (1/2 hr or less usually, but it can be more). Wallmart parking lot is about 2 minutes from the bridge. I will let Kevin know to expect you mid week to pick up the vehicle. I will have cash to pay you. I look forward to meeting you. Drive safe! Karen (4/18/2008)
