Questions for this shipment: 

Question: is this going to be dissasembled im puteing a run together i have room in the back of my f 350 duall could do for 400 total next week (10/5/2007)
Response: This pump will not be dissasembled,(it may come off the pedastal base I am not sure.)The person I am dealing with said the pump is approximately 6.5 feet tall, and I am sure it is quite heavy. The big things to protect here would be The two round clockface glass covers(one on each side) and the sight glass. As far as I know, there would be no-one avail to help load, she may be able to get some help if timing was right. I have read your feedback profiles, and you have some happy customers, and of course a few cancellations that were not so happy...I feel your price is deccent for coming to Maine...Let me know what you think. Will Stuart (10/6/2007)
Question: Hi, Do you still need this done? It is a tuff one for me but I can probably help you out. How much are you looking to spend on this? Thanks. (10/6/2007)
Response: Yes, I would still like to get this job done and naturally for as little as possibe, but I am a fair man and realize that everybody has to eat. I have seen your feedback profile, and I am happy to see you have very positive results and happy clients. This particular shipment would involve loading the item yourself(item is approx 6.5 feet tall and fairly heavy I am not sure how much.) As far as what I am willing to spend, the truth is I am not sure..The best thing to do would be for you to give me a price of what you think is fair to drive this item to the central Maine area, I guess the best way to do it would be to add it with a northernly load if possible and knock out a couple a birds with one stone, so if you would like please give me your best price and perhaps we can take it from there and see what happens, again I like your profile and maybe if the price is right we can do some bussiness...Thanks for asking. (10/6/2007)
Response: Hi, This is just a ball park of options, I have 1378 on the milage, If you want to pick it up from boston I can do an even 600. Or and extra 700 to go up to Agusta. Sorry but I know this is a little more than you were willing to spend, but it is out of the way on both ends, plus I have to recruit a local to help me load for like $30. I will be in Milwaukee,wi on Tuesday 10/9/07. So kick it around and let me know. Thanks. (10/6/2007)
Response: Again no disrespect, it would be a shame not to put something together especially if you are going to be in that area...If you want to dicker a little please do, and remember I would gladly pay you in Cashola. (10/6/2007)
Response: No,No,No Your choice of either $600 you come and get it from Boston yourself, with a uhaul or pickup. $700 for me to bring it to your door. Sorry If I was not clear. (10/6/2007)
Response: I do understand more clearly now, you are saying for $700.00 you will bring it to my house here in Chelsea, Maine. Please tell me again when you would idealy would like to do this...What day. Will (10/6/2007)
Response: I can't find (Chelsea, Maine)on my map, you listing says Augusta,Me. I will pickup either on 10/9/07 late evening(more likely) or 10/10/07 early morning. You will have your item on 10/16/07 late pm or 10/17/07 early am. (10/6/2007)
Response: I wrote Augusta just to make it easier for shippers to determin a distance. Chelsea Maine borders Augusta, along with Randolph and whitefield. OK so I am interested for $700.00 and will try to get ahold of the owner and see if this would be possible to pick up on 10/10...get back to me so i can be sure you can find Chelsea, like I said it borders Augusta....Thanks Again, I will get back to you soon and let you know if I can get the owner. (10/6/2007)
Response: ok. And find out about the 18 wheeler access to her property! If not no worries, I will drop to trailer in town, and go in with the tractor. (10/6/2007)
Response: I have sent an e-mail asking about access for an 18 wheeler, and about the owners availablity to be present for a pick up...it's late and I do not expect an answer tonight, but bear in mind that I am interested in your offer and I will try to make this thing work out(again your feedback has been very helpfull)I will write you and keep you posted as soon as I have any info...look for more from me tomorrow....Thanks again....Will (10/6/2007)
Response: ok, have a good night, we have a couple of days to get everything lined up. (10/6/2007)
Response: I have contacted the owner of the gas pump, and it appears her road and driveway can accomodate an 18 wheeler, and she would be available wednesday. I would like to remind you pryor to confirming this pickup that the pump will in no way be crated, and there will be nobody available to help load. There are original glass lenses over the clockface, and above the clockface that would require special attention to avoid breakage. Again, I realize you do this for a living and your feedback sais it all. The owner sais the pump is located at her residence wich is about 1 mile off I-39(highway HH Exit). I will accept your price to bring to my house, Please get back to me asap so I may arrange payment of this item before it is picked up. This whole deal hinges on transportation. Thanks Again Will Stuart (10/7/2007)
Response: ok, i'm driving, get back to you soon. (10/8/2007)
Response: All I need is a definate on your end and I can set this whole thing rolling. Please get back to me asap so I can make arrangements on the other end. Have a great Day...Thank you Will Stuart (10/8/2007)
Response: Sorry for the delay, I'm in buffalo now. I will place a bid in with a condition of my right to cancel, if I deam the item to fragil to ship. I will goto the location and make sure I can protect/secure it properly on the truck. If so I will pick it up, otherwise I will have to tell you the risk involved. I don't want this to get damage as much as you. I say lets go for it. (10/8/2007)
Response: Yes Sir, As a hauler of goods I trust your good judgement, and I like your attitude. I am going to make a payment arrangement that is based on wether or not you pick up. I say lets go for it as well. Do you need anymore info from me? How about an exact address with better directions? When do you think you will be able to check it out? I will tell the owner....Will (10/8/2007)
Response: No change of info yet, uship we get upset,let me make a formal bid and you will then get my direct contact info. Give me a couple of hours(driving and typing now). Thanks. (10/8/2007)
Response: Eddie, I have paid a deposit, and I will call the owner and tell her you would like to pick up tonight. I have some directions for you. Off exit 156 go left onto County HH(4 lanes) after 1/2 to 3/4 mile see a stop light and take a left on Hoover Avenue, about 1/4 to 1/2 mile take a right on Elm Street, go by one house and take a left on Coventry...Sharon's house is on the right hand side on the corner of Coventry and Buckingham. (turn right onto Buckingham, you will see gas pump) Can from there back into driveway. House and garage are grey... (10/9/2007)
