Response: I didn't put the amount, figured I would see what kind of bids came up. Also, I will be going to West Virginia the last of June and figured if nothing else worked out I could make a big detour to Jonesboro, visiting Memphis on the way, then go through Louisville, KY and visit my sister and then on to W.Va. But, that is a BIG detour. I would rather have you bring the pump to Tarpon Springs even though I will have to consider the additional expense of a trip to Tarpon Springs. I know you are going to Jonesboro anyway, but I also know you will be going out of your way to pick up the pump for me. Try to give me a number that will be good for both of us, something I can handle and at the same time will help offset your expenses. Thank you very much. (5/6/2007)

Response: Les, I read your profile and was very pleased. I am confident you would do a first rate job. Also, sounds like your time frame would work for me. As I understand your mail, you would pick up the pump this Friday or Saturday and bring it to my residence in Lake Worth. If so, that would be a big plus. When do you estimate you would be here? I am just off the Lake Worth exit of the Florida Turnpike. Your profile looks great, and delivering to my door is a big plus. I am trying not to "bury myself" financially in this old pump, so the big question for me now is your price. Let me know what you can do. Thank you, Glenn (5/9/2007)

Response: Hi. At this point my only concern is getting the pump from Tarpon Springs. I would prefer avoiding that trip if possible. You mentioned that you haul hot tubs up and down the east coast. Does that mean you come to the east coast of Florida, anywhere near West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, or Fort Pierce, even the Melbourne area?? If so, maybe we could take care of that part of the delivery some time in the near future. If you were making a run this way, I could meet you somewhere for the exchange. Maybe even Orlando?? Let me know if there is any chance of something like that. Thanks, Glenn (5/10/2007)
