Question: hi are you flexible on delivery ? how soon do you need the boat I will bid but i am booked for 2 weeks thanks for the bid request Mike (4/10/2008)
Response: Hi, wish this could have been done sooner, but, should finally be closing the deal with buyer this week, ao i am flexible, but at the same time, buyer will want to know when pick-up will be made, and he might be less patient than i, however, getting paperwork done, prepping boat, etc, might take us to 2 weeks anyway.
would rather not be there in person, but in the case that I have no choice, is it possible for you to give me an exact pick-up date if I choose your bid? same goes for delivery, as my marina is not open yet and they will want to know beforehand so they can have personnel there.
thanks (4/10/2008)
Question: still need this done? Please read our Feedback, it speaks for us. We can load your boat and trailer onto our trailer and deliver it to VT for 1350.00 if this sounds OK contact us and we will go from there. SEC (4/18/2008)
Response: From your pictures, should I understand you do not need to use the boat's trailer, you just put it on your rig?
as you can see, I have a bid for 1300$ from another provider. But let me know if we can match and if you are avaialble for a pick-up on Thu,May 1st. Date is very important as I will be flying to Florida to close the deal w/ seller (4/18/2008)
Response: We are available for a May 1st pickup, anything we load or tow is covered by $300,000. Answer to Trailer ? We load your Boat and Trailer onto our Trailer as one unit, Less chance for damage to your boat both loading and unloading as well as in transit. Sorry we count every penny for our bids our bid would stay at $1350.00, unless you want us to include all Tolls and shipping fees as extra... and that would raise our bid about $180.00. I realize that the other service provider is less but his Feedback for cancelations in NOT good. It is to our advantage to Arrive for Pickups and Deliveries on time and on schedule...after all that is what Feedback is all about. SEC (4/18/2008)
Response: all valid points. please post your bid then and I will seriously consider it. thank you. (4/18/2008)
Response: I have Re-Bid as you requested. If this bid expires we will NOT Re-Bid. SEC (4/21/2008)
Response: Thanks for your patience,
Seller has until tomorrow to sign my offer or I'm pulling it, but I think it should be fine. I honestly believe he did not much time to take care of it today.
(4/21/2008)
Response: Let me know when you are sure. I really dislike this way of communicating. All this time waiting the price of FUEL keeps getting HIGHER, up .23 cents in the last 72 hrs. I'm starting to feel like our handle...LostinTime51, Good night Request a re-bid as soon as you are sure. SEC (4/21/2008)
Response: Sorry about the price of gas, but of course, that is out of my hands. Besides, it's a moot point for had I accepted your bid 72 hours ago, would you be trying to reneg on your bid?
I understand your situation, and can only apologize. Seller said he would try hard to get it done today but was very busy since Saturday (Passover). He called me tonight and said Contract will be signed tomorrow morning.
Keep in mind that unless I can secure transport, I will not commit to the boat's purchase . As such your cooperation is essential and would be very appreciated. I respectfully request that you rebid beforehand so that I know I can count on this before I sign.
Thank you. (4/21/2008)
Response: Sorry about not getting back to you sooner. We will be UNABLE to provide our services to you at this time. We have accepted several Items heading north. (4/22/2008)
Response: dissapointed. Contract is signed. Should you change your mind, please advise within the hour. (4/22/2008)
Question: I can have this done for you by the end of week. $1500 Going to Canada right?? I just brought another one up last week. Lets get this one done too... (4/22/2008)
Response: going to Vermont, zip is 05458 (4/22/2008)
Response: Does this need to be picked "ON" May 1st or before May 1st??? I will tow the trailer the vessel is on. I am based in New Hampshire. I am on my way to Miami this week so I could pick up and have to you by monday. (4/22/2008)
Response: when would you consider picking it up ?
Sorry to stress this , but coordination is VERY important, as I need to fly down there and also need to confirm w/ seller he is available. Please advise on 2-3 days of availability. Ideally would be May1st, as its works for both seller and I, otherwise, but this week-end could work too I guess, but give a few dates so I can get back to you. Pick-up would not be in Homestead but next to Miami airport. Will advise on address. Awaiting your quick response. (4/23/2008)
Response: That works great may 1st If this works for you accept my bid ASAP so I can schedule it in. (4/23/2008)
Response: Excellent, Precise pick-up day is so very important, as seller and I both need to be available when you are there. When would you expect to arrive to destination (vermont)?(I need to make sure my return flight brings me back before you arrive. How/when do you expect payment? (4/23/2008)
Response: I will be waiting on the 1st. Will be in Vt. 2-3 days later. Payment is half on pick up and balance on delivery. (4/23/2008)
Response: Sorry you couldn't make it. (4/25/2008)
