Question: Greetings, we are based in Avon and could pick up the mower deck without issue and deliver same day if the item still needs transport. Please let us know when we can be of service. Thank you Bear (9/22/2009)
Response: Hi Bear, I am pretty confident that I will bid on the mower. I am in no real rush to get it delivered, so same day delivery is fine, or if it would be cheaper to have this delivered several days later, that would be fine too. What type of price can you provide me with? We are looking at about 365 miles. I should have a few options to use, as to where to deliver it, based on what type of facility that you might need to unload. Thanks, Mike (9/22/2009)
Response: We will definitely need assistance loading and unloading as I understand the deck not to be attached to a tractor.As for the type of facility our only limitation is the size of our trailer. We will be transporting on a 20ft gooseneck trailer behind a 3/4 ton 4x4 ford So as long as we can get our equipment in we should be good. normal rates are .91 per mile which would put us in the $320 range. Is that within your targeted price range. If not please advise and I will do everything I can to adjust accordingly. Thanks Bear (9/22/2009)
Response: Bear, I was quoted $200 this morning from an outfit 30 miles up the road in Green Bay, WI. I will understand if you can't beat that price. Thanks, Mike (9/22/2009)
Response: how soon are you wanting to make a decision? If I can find a back haul, I maybe be able to match that price, but will need some time for the research. Thanks Bear (9/22/2009)
Response: The other price that I have expires on 9-25. I would have to accept or decline it by then. I am flexible on the delivery time and the date. I would think the seller would be willing to hold the mower for a bit, as long as I pay for it. Thanks, Mike (9/22/2009)
Response: I'll have to keep your listing open and see if I can locate a back haul before the 25th. I can't promise anything until being able to do the research. I apologize for that. But again, I will do what I can to make this happen at the best possible price from us. Thank you Bear (9/22/2009)
Question: I opened up my emails in the "wrong order" I have another shipment going to Wisconsin we are bidding on in which I might be able to accomodiate your mower with. If this other bid materializes. I would be able to reduce our rate. Could you meet me in somewhere in the middle on price though. Could you consider $235? as we still need to cover our cost on fuel. Bear (9/22/2009)
Response: Hi Bear, I have been quoted $200 from an outfit in Green Bay. I would only be interested in working with someone that can actually beat that price right now. I understand if you can't, but my main concern is getting the mower to WI (if I win the auction). I have no real time constraints or vehicle requirements, so price is really my main concern here. Thanks, Mike (9/23/2009)
Response: I'll match the $200, but I will need to pick up this friday as I do have other obligations in the same area. Otherwise I would not be able to match the price. Please let me know as soon as you win the item so that I can place our bid at that time to save you cancellation fees etc. Bear (9/23/2009)
Response: Bear, I have a couple of outfits close to where I live that I will probably be working with on this. I do appreciate your offers though. Thanks, Mike (9/23/2009)
Response: good luck, maybe next time. Thanks Bear (9/23/2009)
Question: Hi can the seller help load. pickup on Fri for $180 we live right by New London Wi thanx (9/23/2009)
Response: I questioned the seller the other day about access to a dock. They do have access to one if that is easier. Otherwise, I'm sure I can make arrangements to have someone help you load it. Would a dock be easier, or doesn't it matter? I also have access to a dock in Appleton for unloading, or it can be unloaded at my house in Neenah (no dock). I have never done this before. Is it normally just cash at delivery for something like this? Thanks, Mike (9/23/2009)
Response: I was going to haul on ths back of pickup truck so looking for a way to get it loaded may be he can use the tractor to loaded thanx (9/23/2009)
