Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello, could this be picked up and delivered next weekend? and is the pickup location in one of those narrow streets on a steep hill in Pittsburg? Thanks, Gene (6/4/2007)
Response: As was indicated within the original request for a bid / quote, 6/18 thru 6/24/07 is the time it will be available for a pick up. The issue on whether or not this is a "hilly" Pittsburgh street,well what is not a hill in Pittsburgh? But in this case it is a newer townhouse development, the item will be in the back of the home's garage area. I hope this helps. Please advise if further data is needed. (6/5/2007)
Question: Hello again, didnt mean to offend about the hilly conditiond in Pittsburg, but know from experience there sometimes the streets and hills can be cumbursome. Understand about your timing, and am watching this listing to make a bid on it, I am sure I could beat your current bid. Let me know a ball park figure if you can, what you expect to pay. Thanks, Gene (6/5/2007)
Response: No I understand the concern....Pittsburgh is very hilly, and has MANY old streets that were probably too thin for a horse when they were mapped out! This is not one of those at all. I am awaiting feedback from the seller on a sooner pick up time also. In moving this type of item, do you do any "protective wrapping"? Or use any type of wrap / quilting to keep it from damage? Please advise. I am looking around 600.00 or less ( if possible) (6/7/2007)
Question: Hello again, I could pick this up on the 23rd for you for 500.00 cash on delivery, and you pay the uship fees involved, I would protect it from the weather using tarps and secure it using ratchet straps as to not damage anything. If this is acceptable let me know and I will place a official bid so I can shedule that weekend for you. Thanks, Gene (6/7/2007)
Response: I apologize for the delay in reply here. What exactly weould the "USHIP" fee's be. I am new to this site. I saw the bid of 564.00 is that 64.00 the fee to USHIP? If so I would like to know if it would be possible to pick up the item on Friday, 6/22/07 after 4:30 PM in order for you to be able to deliver on 6/23/07? If this is possible please advise. Your bid looks very good and it is in the range I am looking to stay within. Thanks very much in advance. (6/10/2007)
Question: yes the 64.00 is the Ushp fee, my base bid was 500.00 and the rest of the bis price was the uship fee. In your add you say the weight is 100 pounds, do you think this is fairly accurate? or would there be someone available to help load and unload this if its much heavier. as far as a friday evening pickup, its possible, how late would be acceptable? I would leave Columbus Ohio about 4:45 pm and believe its about a 3 1/2 hour drive to there not including any stops. When I go on these trips I always take my wife and 2 young sons (4 and 6 years old) we make it a family thing. Please let me know any further details about the timing and weights and sizes of all major pieces, I would hate to get there and find out it wont fit or is too heavy for me and my wife to put it on the trailer or take it off. Thanks, Gene (6/10/2007)
Question: Transporter One is a courier service near Pittsburgh,PA. We are a same day rush delivery service.PA Business license#3732343. Our van dimensions are 51Wx45Hx79L. Are your measurements accurate? If this would fit in our van we could ship this for 400 + uship fees. Let us know about the measurements and we can bid and pickup and deliver whenever you would like us to.Thank you (6/10/2007)
Response: Hi, thanks for the bid and the reply on the shipments dimensions. I believe that the dimensions given are pretty accurate. Since this is a form I am not sure it would fit within the van laying flat. This is a concern for me since I am buying this item used, and would like to be assured that it is being transported "flat". The length and the height seem to be alright, it is the width I am concerned about. (6/12/2007)
Question: Hello, any word yet on the verified dimentions and weight? Thanks, Gene (6/12/2007)
Response: Hi I have re-confirmed with the current owner of the Hot Tub, that it is at or about 100 lbs. Not more. The trip for me when I drive to the area from my home is 340 miles 1 way. If a pick up could occur late on Friday 6/22, after 4:30 PM that would be great. The "helper" factor is a concern since I am not out there at that point. I myself can certainly help unloading, as will my husband...I am unsure of what the lifting factor might be for your wife. Since the entire product if fully disassembled, and all cabinetry is also disassembled, I am advised that there is a really good "grip" factor on the edges of the tub form itself. Please advise further....your's is the best bid so far. (6/12/2007)
Response: Hello, just wanted you to know that I could pick up and deliver on your specified dates and times. Thanks, Gene (6/14/2007)
Response: Yes, that would be great. I have accepted your bid, and am loking forward to doing business with you! (6/18/2007)
Question: Hello, are you still interested in having this transported? Thanks, Shukie1 (6/17/2007)
