Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Could this be picked up early and delivered at your requested time? (6/17/2008)
Response: Absolutely, yes. I only selected the range of pickup dates to precede our actual move by about a week. If you can do the job by picking up the piano earlier and then delivering it during the window of time for delivery, that will be perfectly fine. In fact, feel free to take more time on the delivery end as well. Just so that it gets picked up and delivered some time. Thanks. (6/17/2008)
Response: Okay, let me look into some things. Thanks for the fast response! -Nathan (6/17/2008)
Question: Sorry, but after a further analysis of my expected overhead, fuel costs are preventing me shipping at my usual prices. I wish you luck with your shipment and am sorry I wasn't able to make this happen. Best of luck and GO GATORS! Thanks, -Nathan (6/18/2008)
Response: Nathan, Thanks for considering my move of a piano. Perhaps you know of someone else who might do it. Have them check this UShip site, if you could. Or, I could raise my desired price to, say, $1000 if that would help convince you to accept the job. Thanks again. (Florida fan, huh?) (6/18/2008)
Question: (6/18/2008)
Response: I did not see a question from carolinapianomovers. If you try again on the question, I'd be happy to "speak" with you. (6/18/2008)
Response: sorry I have to check on something before placing a bid... I will be in your area and live very close to the drop off... as long as you are flexible with pick and drop I can do this for you.....I have to check on something and I will get back to you by the end of the night....thanks (6/18/2008)
Response: I hope you can submit a bid or decline very soon since I have another bid active for four more days. It is also critical that you are insured, bonded, and licensed. If you are able to submit a competitive bid, that's fine. I'll look forward to it. I definitely can be flexible with both pickup and delivery dates as long as pickup is not AFTER my target and delivery is not BEFORE my target. Thanks for your interest. (6/19/2008)
Response: great! then I will place a bid (6/19/2008)
