Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hi, my husband and I are heading out to Cali soon traveling in our 40ft RV. We are not bonded but would be able to transport your cats for the $900. We are just waiting to hear back from another lady about her items that she needs moved also. This might be a stupid question, but, Is this the Brentwood in the LA area or SFran area? Thanks, Cody (3/8/2005)
Response: Thank you for answering my request for shipment. I'm in Brentwood Northern California. At the moment one other cats has a skin condition that has to be healed before it can com eout here, and neither has their vaccinations yet. I'm not sure what your timetable is but would like to keep in touch in case our time frames coincide. Thanks Paul (3/8/2005)
Question: do you still need you babies ship (3/8/2005)
Response: Thank you for answering my request for shipment. Yes, but at the moment one other cats has a skin condition that has to be healed before it can com eout here, and neither has their vaccinations yet. I'm not sure what your timetable is but would like to keep in touch in case our time frames coincide. Thanks Paul (3/8/2005)
Question: Thanks for answering back so quickly, Paul. We are not sure when we are leaving so just let me know as soon as you can ship them. We are going to the fresno area. So either Brentwood would of been ok with us. We can work out the timeframe with you. Let us know. Thanks, Cody (3/8/2005)
Question: ok paul just let me know when you are ready Thanks Rick (3/8/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, I will be in Ohio sometime the first or second week of April and will probably be leaving around the end of April (possibly the beginning of May) to come back to California. I wouldn't mind at all driving to TN to pick up your cats and bring them home to you. I, too, am not bonded - just a traveling animal lover with 3 cats of my own. The $900.00 would be fine with me. Thanks! Gail (3/9/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, I was just checking to see how the cats are doing? Especially the one with the skin condition. Just let me know when ever you can. Cody (3/10/2005)
Question: Hi Just checking back with you about your cats. Have you found someone to ship them for you? We are still planning our trip to Cali. and would like to help you out. Please get back with me and let me know whether or not you have found a shipper. Thanks again, Cody (3/19/2005)
Response: Hi, Thanks fro keeping in touch. We are still looking for someone to ship them out. Id like to ask a few questions before I commit though. Do you have shipping kennels for 2 cats? What is the maximum size you can take? I have been advised that the cats each need to be able to stand fully and turn around , have room fo r food , water and litter in the cage. Is the heater/air conditoiner running continuously, even if you go out for a while? How long do you anticipate the trip to take? We just got health and vaccinatin certs for them, but the health cert is only legally good for 36 hours. Will you take the cats out of the cages periodically? If so will they have leashes on and all RV doors closed? Do you have a cell phone that we can contact you on en-route? Will we get updates on your progress? What payment arraingmets would you like? I prefer something like 1/2 now 1/2 on arrival. We are interested in doing this at any time, since the vet has cleared them for travel. Thats all I (3/19/2005)
Question: Hi, we are planning on traveling out to Cali on or about the middle of Apr. possibly sooner. we do have kennels that are more than ample size for the cats to stand up, and turn around in. One kennel is 21wx19hx24d, the other is larger. we will take the cats out if you want on a leash. The Rv is always heated or has the air on whenever we travel cause we have our own pets with us at all times. They are in Kennels too when ever we leave them alone. My husband & I both have cell phones, (as long as we aren't in any no service zones). So yes, you can contact us anytime you like. Payment of 1/2 dn and 1/2 at delivery would be sufficient. It would possible take about 2-3 days from p/u pending on the weather. Is mid Apr. ok with you, or sooner? Let us know... Thanks, Cody (3/21/2005)
Response: Ok, so I guess we are all ready to do the deal. I would like some form of ID for you and your vehicle before you pick them up if you dont mind. What form of payment do you prefer. I have a Paypal account and would prefer to use that if you have one. Thanks Paul (3/21/2005)
Question: are the babies ready (3/24/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, How do you want me to give you the ID? Are you the person that I am picking up from? Cause I can give you ID when I see you. And yes, I have Paypal. But I've never received payment from Paypal. So you might have to explain it to me. I have used it several times paying for items on Ebay. We should be leaving around the middle of Apr. so I will get back with you soon. (3/28/2005)
Response: Hi Cody. If you have a digital camera or scanner, you could send me a close-up pic of it as an attachment to an email , or if you have a camera phone, I suppose I can receive a pic on mine.(never done that before, but it's supposed to be able to). Regarding Paypal, I just need your email address amd tell them to send x$ to that email. You get an email with a subject line that I write like "Payment from Paul for Cats" and says "You have cash" from Paypal inside. There are instructions on how to get the money in the email. Paul (3/28/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, I talked this over with my husband, Jim, and he said he didn't feel comfortable sending information with pictures over the internet of our Id's. I will show you our identification with RV information when we arrive to pick up your cats. We have been almost burnt dealing with ebay customers for thousands of dollars in the past. So, we are very protective with our personal information. I will also give you both of our cell numbers and my daughters home and cell numbers if you like when we pick up. If you would feel more comfortable calling us before this transaction is completed, you can call my cell [Removed Contact Information]. Please get back to me asap! And using paypal is ok. Thanks so much, Cody (3/29/2005)
Response: Thats fair enough. I probably would feel the same way myself. I have been delivered goods that weren't quite as advertised on ebay myself(as well as many pefect tranactions of course). Getting the ID info at time of pickup is acceptable. I am at the dropoff point in California. The name of the person you will get the cats from in Memphis is Chris. She is the room-mate of the owner of the cats (who is out here with me). Chris will be able to get the ID information from you. I will get you her email and phone number so you can coordinate with her on the pickup date and time. We are ready to get the cats here as soon as you can come, so from my point of view you don't have to wait until the mid April time frame to make the trip. Thanks, Paul (3/29/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, I will wait for Chris's contact info. Thanks so much, Cody (3/29/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, Since we have already agreed for us to ship your babies to you, do you need me to place a formal bid? Let me know please. Thanks, Cody (3/31/2005)
Response: Hi Cody, Yes I think a bid would be a good idea. The phone number for Chris is [Removed Contact Information] (3/31/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, I just received your message due to being out of town. I will put the bid in tomorrow night when I arrive back home in Ohio. Thanks, Cody (4/3/2005)
Question: Hi Paul, I just tried to call Chris and there was no answer. We have moved up our travel dates. We are leaving this friday night or sat morning. I need to contact Chris with the directions. Please have him get back to me at [Removed Contact Information]. Thanks, Cody (4/6/2005)
