Questions for this shipment: 

Question: If the weight is accurate, I could get them to you for your maximum price but you would need to receive at a business or pick up from the terminal. A residential delivery would be closer to $500 (8/21/2009)
Response: Well Manhattan is businesses and residential mixed. It's all buildings. I mean if it had to be picked up from a business I could literally bring them down and set them in front of the business next to me if it made a $75 difference. I can ask my sister if they can be delivered to their office instead of home. I may be interested if $425 is the bottom line price. I did an estimate though at the average for what I am shipping and it said $371 (8/21/2009)
Response: I was talking about the destination, not origin. In regards to the estimate you got, yes that is possible if it were dock to dock crated freight. (8/21/2009)
Response: I gotcha on the destination bit. I can possibly get that to a biz address if that helps my bottom line. As for the dock to dock crated freight... you are speaking greek to me. I need to have it in crates? Boxes will not suffice? I apologize for the questions, but the moving business is not my area of expertise :) Have to dumb it down for me. (8/21/2009)
Response: Boxes are fine. (8/21/2009)
Response: ok, so with taxes and all, 300 lbs of boxes of clothes (will be efficient and provided out the door) and delivered to a biz location... the estimate I received works for you? $371? (8/21/2009)
Response: I can't, maybe someone else can. (8/22/2009)
Response: Sir or ma'am. I usually am never so price conscious. I would take quality over a rock bottom rate because I know businesses need to make money in exchange for quality service. In this circumstance though I am on such a fixed budget and it stinks. Since $371 is not within your range, what would be your rate after taxes and any fees? (8/23/2009)
