Response: I will have the shipper put a protective wrap around it and put the prop in a box. If you accept the shipment, will you pick it up at their residence or will they have to bring it somewhere? Thanks, Erick (2/14/2008)

Response: Your prompt reply is welcomed / FYI - bid rated all inclusive as per posting info: “Residential to Residential” with curbside service for both ... Shipper to bring item(s) to curbside for loading by carrier & Consignee to receive item(s) at curbside for unloading by carrier ... Shipper just needs to shrink wrap binini Wit cardboard end caps ... prop to be put in box ... Do you have any questions or require rate and/or service clarification?? If so, then please ask before accepting … THX (2/14/2008)

Response: Can you give me a bid if the bimini top & prop was dropped off at a (reasonably short distance) shipping dock and I picked it up within 50-60miles from delivery address? I work in cleveland (zip code: 44130) and can pick it up at a location near there. (2/16/2008)

Response: Good question & have looked at mileage distances. Shipper's nearest carrier terminal is Grand junction, CO or 74 miles away; so shipper would have to find a local suitable business type location to use as a "ship from" drop to avoid residential fees, same for you on the receiving end as a choice of two terminals about 40 miles away ea. Cost would come down to being slightly under $200 as going "Business to Business" ... let me know what you can arrange for on the other end (2/16/2008)

Response: I will accept your offer for monday pickup for $175. (2/21/2008)

Response: I could be there Mon for a pick up. (2/21/2008)

Response: I've accepted your offer for $175. The person in CO works near the pick-up address and would like you to call him monday so that you can set up a time to meet. He's going to pay for half of the $175 and I'll pay for the other half. I need to get you that info before Monday. THanks, Erick (2/22/2008)
