Questions for this shipment: 

Question: when does auction end? (11/24/2007)
Response: Hi, The auction ended yesterday with no bids(I didn't bid because I didn't have a shipper lined up). I have been in touch with the seller since the auction ended and they know I still want it. Keeping in mind that it's only a $200 item, how much could you deliver it for? Thanks, Gary (11/24/2007)
Response: from 1 Gary to another.......honestly its the space that is the issue....along with any people help that HAS to be available at each end...... my best guess at something like that would be coming from a similar situation that I had to deliver a large RC airplane from Cleveland to your area......(bubble wrapped at my expense) I bid 150 and netted 125. for yours, again the space issue becomes a factor... 5 x 9 in my trailer is essentially the same as an ATV...which I would charge in the neighborhood of 200.00 for that distance and allowing me to gather more items going to and coming from Chicago. fuel prices come into play in this figure and againn, in order to work at that 200 figure, more supporting items would need to be delivered/picked up..... gary (11/24/2007)
Response: Hi Gary! There should be someone there to help at the pick-up end(I would, of course, confirm this with the seller) and I would be here on the delivery end so I don't see think there would be any problems from a man-power power perspective. From a cost perspective I'm perfectly fine with $200 but do you think that you'd be able to arrange more shipments?? Regards, Gary (11/24/2007)
Response: Chicago is one of the easiest locations to find shipments going to or coming from. Can you wait two weeks? I'm trying to work -out a pick -up / delivery in the Pittsburgh area. (11/24/2007)
Response: Hi Gary, Is that two weeks to pick-up or two weeks until you know if you have addtl shipments? Just want to let the seller know... (11/24/2007)
Response: my goal is to take care of everything 2 weeks from this current weekend......but there may be a day or 2 in between pickup and delivery (11/25/2007)
Question: If I could pick the item up this Saturday / Sunday and deliver to you the same weekend, would that be acceptable to you? The other thing is can you check with the seller which ever day is best for him and you so we can do business.... Gary (11/26/2007)
Response: Gary, The sellers have been out of town. I will be in touch with them tomorrow and will let you know by tomorrow evening if we've been able to work out a deal. Thanks, Gary (11/26/2007)
Response: that would be fine......hope you're able to get in contact with them.....I've got some other things in the works that are up in your area too.. thanks Gary (11/27/2007)
Response: Hi Gary, At this point the deal is off so go ahead and plan on not having my shipment. Hopefully I can use your services in the future. Thanks and be safe out on those roads, Gary (11/27/2007)
Response: OK THANKS GARY......GOOD LUCK TO YOU AND HOPE TO MEET U SOMEDAY (11/27/2007)
