Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello, I can pick up on my way out to New York and then deliver on my way down to Florida. I cannot ship this item for 150 dollars, I understand and appretiate the value and the fragile state this light is in. I can pick up later this week and have delivered within the next six days or so. I will fully wrap and blanket this light and box to protect 100%. My bid may be a bit higher than 150 but the light is gaurenteed to arrive without issue, damage or broken glass... Please consider my offer and I will submit my bid in a moment. Thanks, Zonkercraft (8/27/2009)
Question: Hello. I consider myself (as do all my customers) to be a trustworthy person who will give this beautiful (& most probably irreplacable) item it deserves. I am allso a federally licensed motor carrier with proper cargo insurance. (I pay the deductable.) I can offer pick-up between 9/10--9/14, with delivery being within 10 days of pick-up. I carry an assortment of cargo protection devices (soft blankets, pads, stretch wrap & soft ties), as well as a full array of load securing devices. I can offer a quote of $200.00. If this is acceptable, please let me know & I will bid formally. Either way, best wishes & kind regards, "Greyhound" (Kelly Freight Services--A FULLY LICENSED, INSURED & PROFESSIONAL MOTOR CARRIER".) (8/27/2009)
Response: Hi Greyhound, Thanks very much for your response. I am trying to email the person the light is going to and they have yet to respond to me. I will try to get back to you asap, as soon as I hear from them to give them the bids that are coming in. Best regards, hhale (8/27/2009)
Response: Hi & thanks for your prompt reply. If the party on the other end is agreeable with my particulars, please let me know. I'll be happy to enter a formal bid. Also, I do provide an insurance certificate upon bid acceptance. Best regards always, Tony K. ("Greyhound"--Kelly Freight) (8/27/2009)
Question: I could do it for $150. I'm in Erie, PA headed back home to Leesburg, VA area I could swing over and pick up ASAP. Chris GDLLC (8/27/2009)
Response: Hi Chris, They just now emailed me, I have been trying all day to get ahold of them. are you insured? The light sold for almost a thousand dollars. How soon would you be coming here? (8/27/2009)
Response: I dont do this full time so if insurance is needed I can get it for your item, it will cost me $45 for the piece. If I can pick up this evening I will have it to you in the morning. Chris (8/27/2009)
Response: Hi Chris, I am going to pass, thanks kindly for emailing though, I would like a bit more time to get it ready for shipment, and I have another guy fully insured that will do it for less. I hope I can use your service in the future months ~ I have some furniture I will be shpping in the next couple of months down south. Best regards! (8/27/2009)
Response: ok thanks (8/27/2009)
Response: If you have already changed your path on the road and we are out of your way don't bother with my questions .. I just emailed them again, what time would you come to us this evening? and what time would you get to them in Fredericksburg? just approx? She says she doesn't want weekend delivery. Don't mean to be a pain but just don't want anything to happen to this light, she definitely wants insurance. Also, how is payment made, she would be paying on her end. Thanks, Heather (8/27/2009)
Response: I'm in Jamestown, NY, but I could possibly still do it for you with a pick up in the early morning.Chris (8/27/2009)
Response: Hi Chris, Thanks again, I didn't get your email in time, this woman is driving me crazy, and can't make up her mind. If it was mine to ship I would do it in a heartbeat, but since she purchased the light she is in the driver's seat on this one. Please keep me in mind for furniture in the future. Best regards, Heather (8/27/2009)
