Question:
7/30/2012
Jerry- We are going this way next week. Is there anyway you could meet us in Dallas? I can do a quote from KY to Dallas if you can meet us there, and that would save you money. We would love to help you move your horse for you. We are Triple-ac-ranch and we have been doing transporting now for more than 12 years, we are a family owned business. We stop every 3-4 hours to provide the horses with fresh water and all horses have grass hay in front of them at all times. We use 6 horse slant trailers, a Sundowner, Featherlite, a Sooner, and an Exiss. Our drivers are DOT compliant and drive about 12 hours a day with our stops included. Safety of your horse and our drivers is of utmost importance to us. We are licensed and insured. We would love to earn your business. Report a Violation
Response: I'm actually in KY. I'm purchasing this horse for my 15yr old daughter in TX. My brother-in-law in Houston is working in Dallas every week for the next several weeks but they need new tires on their trailer and don't want to risk it, otherwise he'd come on up and get it for her. If I can find him a loaner trailer I can make this happen. What would be your lowest price to take her along and where would he pick her up? It would need to be less than the cost of 4 new tires & his gas to come all the way to KY to get her. Also, depending on what day you are getting there, we may need you to board the horse a few days until John heads back, usually on Fri or Sat. I also have bro-in-law in TN an hour from horse's current loc. He can get trailer and we can get her down there ourselves. Given his gas engine will likely only get about 10-12MPG loaded, my cost is going to be roughly $600 in fuel. If you can take her all the way to Bellville for that and arrive by 8/10 I'll give you my business.7/31/2012Report a Violation
Response: : We can do it for $600 but arrival date would be closer to the 11th-12th. Would that work for you? ANd we would bring her all the way to Bellville. 7/31/2012Not in Violation
Response: Yes. That would be fine, even better actually. What date would you pick up? You have no idea how much healing you are bringing to a 15 yr old cowgirl who recently lost her barrel horse. Be easier if you could call me today, tomorrow by noon at the latest, to discuss so I can make decision. I know you have good refs but I'm sure you understand, I'd appreciate the opportunity to get to know y'all a little by phone before making decision whether to do it myself this weekend or trust a total stranger with a horse we just paid alot for. Not trying to cheat uShp out of their cut here. Just my wife, who prefers I not be gone all weekend, will want to know I've done my dilligence. ;) Will do transaction via this site. In case site blocks,[phone number removed]You can also comm directly with me via jerrysisson at hot mail dot com or jerry dot sisson at cbeyond dot net. Many thanks, Jerry Sisson You can also find me on FB, LI or TW Or skp me - cloud3e8/1/2012In Violation

jerry i can pick up your horse on the 14th and have him to your daughter on the 15th, will this work. i can move him for $675. let me know and i'll place a bid.thanksNot in Violation
Response: I have another bid for $600 but their reviews, though stellar prior, have gone drastically down hill over the past 2 months. A key area is in communication. Your reviews seem much better. Can you do it for the $600. Regardless, I would like to have a phone conversation with you. I will do the transaction via uShip for both our protection but would like to have some communication prior to accepting your bid. I just have some questions for you about your experience & routines for the horse during your haul (i.e. stops & hydration, etc.), plus I'd prefer not to give my daughters new barrel horse she's been waiting a long time for over to anyone I've never at least had a phone conversation with. I'm sure you understand. If you are willing to call me, [phone number removed] Many thanks, Jerry8/1/2012In Violation

Jerry we are based out of Texas and can offer a direct trip back to Texas the last week of this month.If you can wait that long.Thanks Rick donerighthaulingReport a Violation
Response: I really need to get her there by next week. I had someone who was going with 2 head from NY to Dallas today and bid $600 to take her all the way to Magnolia but he cancelled on me this morning. If I wait til end of mo it will cost me another $200 in board. I have another bid to leave Mon for $800 so, unless you can commit for $400 or less at end of mo, I will have to pass. Thanks for your interest. Jerry8/14/2012Report a Violation
