Question: OK. Perfect. I'm just glad to hear that it's not actually a "900 pound monster". The last thing I need is some 2 headed escapee from the Island of Dr. Moreau in my van! The offer price you set was $400 so that's what I was banking on. Plus it sounds fair for that size and distance so I hope that's still OK. BTW I'm not bonded nor can I pffer insurance past my normal auto insurance. I can provide blankets and I do have a lift on the van, but it will be just me and the van so if extra manpower is needed on either side (which I assume it will be) I'll need you to help with that. Overall, it sounds good to me so I will officially accept now. When you reciprocate, U-ship will allow us to speak on the phone. Thanks! Izzy (12/4/2004)

Question: Hi Katherine. Saddly no, I do not do that trip routinely. I just happen to be doing it next week which make the timing a bit unflexible. It looks like what I could do right now is pick it up on Tuesday and then bring it down on Wednesday. I do check U-ship fairly frequently and if something were to come up later this month, I could theoretically do it later but as it is a budding website, I don't think that's very likely. On top of which, Vermont is one of the leasy likely destinations and (without trying to be manipulative) I don't think it's very likley that you'll find someone else on U-ship who will be in that area anytime soon especialy not with a vehicle equiped to move such a "Monster". If you were offering 3x the money you are, I'd gladly make a dedicated trip for you whenever you want, otherwise, it's really got to be Tues/Wed. I suggest you get a big old pile of leaves and leave the safe covered with them out side your home. Then do your best to discourage your hubby from (12/5/2004)

Question: Excellent. Thanks for the accept. I just tried calling you but you didn't pick up. I left my phone # on your voicemail. I need contact info and an exact address for the pick-up. Please call as soon as you can. Thanks again Katherine! Izzy (12/6/2004)
