Response: we would arange pickup and delivery dates to suite your needs, thanks (4/21/2008)
Response: Thank you for the bid. However, after speaking with the furniture restorer and the recipient, they were not comfortable with moving the covered pieces in an open truck. (4/23/2008)
Response: thats no problem, but in order for me to provide resonable prices for people, i have to work with the equipment that i currently have, and ill be glad to take what ever steps needed in order to provide safe shipment of your furniture and cusomer satisfaction, if you change your mind before friday ill be happy to rebid 100 dollars cheaper, thanks... (4/23/2008)
Response: Thanks, but the concern is that the items be contained. Lowering the cost will not change it. I'm sorry that it will not work with the equipment that you have. (4/23/2008)
Response: ok thats no problem, ive got a 6by12 enclosed trailor that ill be happy to use but the price on it would be 750 , reason bieng that it will limit my load capacity, if this sounds fair to you ill be glad to place another bid, thanks (4/23/2008)
Response: The enclosed trailor is better and price is OK. (4/23/2008)
Question: that will be fine ill be able to give you advanced notice on pick up and delivery, if i bid and you except we will work everything out on the phone this week to suit your needs if you shrink wrap that would be great then ill wrap in blankets to secure.. (4/21/2008)
