Additional Information: The seller lives less than 1
mile from Orange County, California Airport and could take the motorcycle to a nearby shipping/transport center/hub if that saves a worthwhile amount of money. I am the buyer and live 8 miles from Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) International Airport in Texas. I can get the motorcycle from a nearby shipping/transport center/hub if that saves a worthwhile amount of money. The motorcycle can be palletized if needed. It can also be strapped down. Do whatever works best, given your situation and experience. Thanks for your quote!

Questions for this shipment:

Question: I have a home here in SoCal about 20 min north of Orange Co. I am leaving next week and pulling my open trailer that is setup with Condor wheel chocks and will be heading back to Tn. with 2 other bikes, Trailer has a front stone gaurd so no damage can occur. My bid will be 375.00 let me know if this is of interest to you. (8/30/2007)

Response: Hello. Your offer is of interest to me. I also have another open trailer bid of $350. Would you be willing to meet or beat this offer? Thanks, Chris (8/30/2007)

Response: Yes, I can go 335.00 if your interested and want to seal the deal. (8/30/2007)

Response: Hello. I am interested and would like to seal the deal for $335. Would it be possible for you to submit a formal bid for that amount? Thanks, Chris [phone number removed] (8/31/2007)

Response: Chris, I hadnt forgot you, I am working on a few other deals also. Should have everything done tommorow or Sunday. But dont pass up a good deal if another comes along. (9/1/2007)

Response: Ok, but I'm still interested. Thanks, Chris (9/1/2007)

Question: Can your bike be shipped in a pick up bed strapped & locked securley ? (8/31/2007)

Response: Hello. Yes, I would entertain the bike being shipped in a pickup bed if it is strapped and locked securely. However, I would expect that arrangement to be signicantly less costly than the $335 quote I received to ship the bike on a trailer designed to haul motorcycles. Fuel for the trip in an empty, unloaded diesel pickup would be about $250. See if you can make me an offer over that but significantly less than $335. Thanks, Chris (8/31/2007)

Response: I will pass. Thank you (8/31/2007)

Response: Hello. Are you certain? I apologize if I selected a poor word choice in my earlier response. Please allow me to rephrase and clarify. I would accept a bid such as $310 for shipping in a pickup bed. That would pay for 1,400 miles of fuel and driving time, while still being notably cheaper than the $335 bid I received for shipping on a trailer. Whatever the outcome, I appreciate you considering my shipment. Thanks, Chris (9/1/2007)

Question: We are heading from Southern Calif on Monday 9/3 and heading to the Dallas/Fort Worth area. The shipment would arrive within 3-4 days. We would be able to do this shipment for $325.00. We need to know asap if you are interested so that we can place a bid. Thanks. McTizic Transport (9/1/2007)

Response: Hello. Yes, I am interested. Please place a bid and include the details of what you would be shipping the bike on (open or closed trailer, how securing, protection level, etc.). Thanks! Chris (9/1/2007)
