Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Can do pick up April 2 - 4 and deliver April 4 - 15 for $400 due to insurance needs let me know (3/20/2007)
Response: Can you package the clock as well? Will it be part of an LTL? What do you mean by "insurance needs" ? I have homeowners and do not need additional insurance to cover this item. Please explain the need. (3/20/2007)
Question: I can package it and use bubble wrap and shrink then extra cardboard & tape I am glad you have home owners insurance I do not think that covers it in my Cargo Van maybe you can check I have not heard that a home policy covers something in another independent vehicle. Are my dates OK? (3/20/2007)
Response: Also, I have one other item that needs pick up from the same Sun City address. It is a chest of drawers. It is heading to San Antonio. It weighs 150 lbs and its dimensions 39.5, 42.5, 20. Interested? (3/20/2007)
Question: I have a 20 foot 1 Ton Ford 20 Passenger Van Converted to a Cargo Van wiht no seats in back and also pull a cargo trailer both of them of coourse are enclosed and I have blanekts and can pack and strap to protect the item .... (3/20/2007)
Question: I am not sure but is the pick up the same address? Can it be delivered another week? Thanks (3/20/2007)
Response: Pick up is the same address. Pickup dates, which I am agreeable to yours, are much more important than delivery dates to me. No rush on getting the items to Iowa or Texas. What would your estimate be on the chest of drawers delivering to zip code 78232? Thank you for your quick responses! (3/20/2007)
Question: I can see doing these and hope we can agree I will bid and when you accpet we can talk I go to AZ NM and TX at various times and can deliver to IA anytime it is very close (3/20/2007)
Response: I received your bid for the clock. I will wait to hear back from my homeowners agent before I bid so I know whether to add the insurance cost to the bid. Expect to hear from me tomorrow AM. Will you create a second bid for the chest of drawers? Or do I need to list it first? (3/20/2007)
Question: We can talk if you accept my bid for the Clock then we have phone numbers and are free to do it under U SHip rules (3/20/2007)
Response: okay. I will email you tomorrow. Thank you! (3/20/2007)
Question: hi, larrbo here. we got a bid from a professional to service the grandfather clock for $100.00. we can work it out to pay him directly ourselves and you pay us everything or you can pay him and pay us for the shipment either way. let us know! thanks! (3/20/2007)
Question: Had to cancel sorry time and location was of a fleeting nature for me due to bids in diff gegraphic areas I now have cargo in the Mid Northern USA for those dates let me know if a later date works (3/21/2007)
Response: When we wrote yesterday I informed you that today I could reply to your bid after speaking with my homeowners agent. I have spoken to my agent and am ready to bid. Am I to understand that you are no longer interested in my business? At least not in March? (3/21/2007)
Question: hi, just wanted to let you know that we can deliver the chest of drawers to SanAntonio as well for you. it would be an add'l $250. and with that we would have to change our delivery dates just a bit to accomodate the spurious loads that we are getting along with yours. the delivery for the grandfather clock in iowa would be approx 4/6-7 and the chest would be approx 4/2-3 in texas. let me know! thanks so much! (3/21/2007)
Response: Okay. To recap you can pick up between March 26 - 30 in Sun City, delivering to San Antonio around April 2/3 and Bettendorf Iowa April 6/7. The clock bid is roughly $550 plus $100 to get a guy to come package it. The chest of drawers is an extra $250. In total the bid is now $900? Do I have it correct? I am ready to proceed with a bid today so please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you! Also are these items going to be in a semi? I beleive you answered yes previously just wanting to confirm. (3/21/2007)
Question: Now due to time, miles & geographic issues I cannot do anything in AZ NM or TX in the month of March or the first week of April . But it is not that I am not intersted in your business (I am) it is simply that no matches for cargo came up in that area (AZ NM TX) in a certain time and some did come up in another area before that now I wil be in M IL IA SD AND ND with matches (3/21/2007)
Response: So are you available to pick up both the chest of drawers heading to San Antonio and the clock heading to Iowa and hold the chest of drawers until mid-April when you get additional cargo and deliver the clock with your other IA cargo? (3/21/2007)
Question: yes, the dates are correct, and we do drive a semi (53 feet long trailer) and the amounts would be $500 for the granfather w/ the $100 to pay for the professional packing (we are knocking some off our bid to off set that cost to you) and then the $250 for the chest. if you accept our bid as it stands we will settle the difference at delivery when you pay....clear as mud?? lol! (3/21/2007)
Question: I would have had to take all or both cargoes to make it work net profit wise ... and I may or may not be able to do anything in AZ soon it is very "iffy" I would LOVE to have enough cargo twice a month to go there for 9 months a year ... it is like bingo with the states and times as squares and the caller is the listers for us small haulers if the caller does not call a time and location we have on our bingo boards then we can't put a chip there ;o) (3/21/2007)
Question: hi, i just put in the bid for $850 plus uship fees to you to cover everything from packing and shipping both items. once you accept the bid we can talk directly via email or phone to set up the time at pickup so we can arrange for the company to pack the clock. are you going to be at pickup or at delivery?? talk to you soon!
