Questions for this shipment: 

Question: This job is a PERFECT match for me. I live here in Surprise AZ and I will be leaving AZ on July 5th driving my 2005 Ford F-350 dually and 28' triple axel gooseneck trailer for pick ups in VA, NY, PA, OH, IL and WI. I am looking for loads to take out and Im very close to landing one for a car that needs to go to DE. I am new to Uship but I am an old timer on Ebay. My user name is rentcollector and I have over 600 pos feedbacks with ZERO negs. I didnt achieve that rating by accident. If we can come to an agreement, you can bring the tractor over to my gated estate so that you can have 100% confidence in who your dealing with. I would say $2,250 would be a fair price. Thats a buck a mile. Try to find that anywhere else! Please respond ASAP because I want to get my exact route in stone asap. Have a great day! Todd (6/18/2006)
Response: sounds great,, I am accepting a few more bids but will run this by the buyer. I will let you know soon! (6/18/2006)
Question: Hello, Im probably giving away some of my bargaining power here but I just bought another item on Ebay (Ebay item # 7616031319) in nearby Newport, VA. So that gives me yet another reason to try to land this load. I am so confident you will like what you see when you meet me that I am willing to risk the 7.9% fee that Uship will charge me when you accept my bid. I live in a 1.5M house and I have the best towing equiptment money can buy. I am willing to risk $177.75 just so I can give you my phone number and address so you can come meet me and if you dont like what you see then you can walk and I get to eat the fee. All I ask is that when you verify everything about me that you book the trip. Uship rules prohibit me from giving you any contact info till you accept a formal bid so Im on the hook to pay there fee. Please let me know asap. Todd (6/19/2006)
Response: no problem .. trust is not the issue . the issue is that I have to get approval from the buyer for your bid. I will keep you posted as soon as I hear back from him. (6/19/2006)
Question: I am willing to bet with a little time that price will be beat badly (6/19/2006)
Response: thanks! (6/19/2006)
Question: That is correct.The low ballers will come in but do you want just any one to transport this beauty ? I do not live in a million dollar house & I would load & do. You would not have to bring it to my home. I believe this is a $ 1.00 per mile shipment. Also I am in the transport business & not a ebayer. (6/19/2006)
Response: sweet.. lets get some bids going! Thanks for all of your input. (6/19/2006)
Question: Holy cow what a buisness. I only mentioned that I was an Ebayer so that you could look for yourself to see how I conduct buisness based on what OTHER people have said about me and I mentioned my house just so you know your not dealing with a fly-by-night apartment dwelling looser that might dissapear with your tractor never to be seen again. I am POSITIVE that givin time you could find a lower price but for such a beautiful piece I would reccommend using somebody that you can verify in advance there honesty and integrity no matter if you use me or not. My history in buisness is nothing short of immpeccable and I would LOVE to have the opportunity to drive this load to further add to my resume. As far as the price, you have already herd from another full time driver that this is a $1.00/mile load. But, because I want it and want it BAD I will be the first one to step up to the pump and place a bid and I will do it for $2,000 just to get it secured in stone by contract. Todd (6/19/2006)
Question: Does the person that sold the tractor have any more. I delivered an antique tractor to a man in Oregon that is putting together a antique tractoe museum & is looking for more tractors. (6/19/2006)
Response: no.. this is the only one. Though I am sure he would have loved to live his life in a museum! (6/19/2006)
Question: Any luck talkin with your buyer yet? (6/20/2006)
Response: strangley no.. i am working dilligently at it though. (6/20/2006)
Question: Has your buyer paid you for this tractor yet? Hope he isnt backing out of your deal. Even know this tractor weighs twice what a car weighs I really want to deliver it bad just because I think I would use the pic of it on my trailer to help get future buisness. Plus I have to go to VA anyway with or without this tractor. Let me know when you talk with him. Todd (6/21/2006)
