Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Does it have to be crated? We've shipped these uncrated. Thanks, Bill (5/14/2008)
Response: if it make it cheaper to ship than uncrated is fine, I just wouldn't want anything stacked on top of the scooter or for it to be moving around. let me know what your bid is:) thanks,chris~ (5/15/2008)
Response: The $300 is too high? Thanks Bill (5/24/2008)
Question: What is your time frame for p/u and delivery? Thanks Terry. (5/15/2008)
Response: I'd like it shipped here in the next week or 2. Time frame is loose as are pick up and drop off's.Get me a low price and we're good to go:) (5/15/2008)
Question: Hello shipper, what part of Denver are you in? Don't give exact address, you'll get flagged. I need to know how far out of downtown you are to figure time out of route. Could do for your target price of $300. Thanks Mike@highwaymantrucking (5/19/2008)
Response: At work I'm about 6 blocks to the north-east of coors field downtown on 29th and walnut. If delivery is going to be on a Monday I'll be home 4th and Broadway area just south of downtown. Please bid as far under $300 as posible, I'd like to finish this up and get it on the way here this week hopefully:) (5/20/2008)
Response: Not to sound rude but the $300 is very generous. I'll have at least 4 1/2 hrs of drive time just to get to it, and thats not including time loading. I normally charge $75 an hour for my services when its on time. Mileage is around 1.45/mile and rising w/fuel going up. Uship also charges me a fee so I do not see the full $300, (the amount of your deposit). The $300 is called all inclusive because thats what you pay and a percentage goes to uship for their services. So I will see about $260 on your load into my pocket to cover my fuel($50) and time. I would be trying to p/u on Fri(23rd) sometime, exact time I don't know yet. And I would probably be delivering on the following Tuesday after Mem Day. Thanks Mike (5/20/2008)
Response: Thanks for the reply, so what's your bid? Thanks,Chris~ (5/20/2008)
Response: I placed my bid below. I have to start counting how many yellow flags I get, I seem to get more than any other provider on here. Anyway p/u has to be FRIDAY A.M. as I really tight on my schedule. If that is NOT possible do not accept the bid. I need to be back at home 1st thing Sat morning and then I'll be leaving for CO I hope Sunday night after dinner. If all goes well on trip out no wind or mechanical problems, I should be in Denver on Tues. Other customer gets 1st drop since it a trailer and I really don't want to pull that around Denver. Let me know. If you accept bid, I will be on the road tonight leaving at 5CST, wife will be home if you call when you are given phone number otherwise you won't hear from me until Wed. Thnaks Mike (5/20/2008)
Response: I'll accept it but are you talking this Friday? I just wanted to check. Give me dates if you can. Also, How do I pay, credit card now or pay when it's dropped off?Thanks,Chris~ (5/20/2008)
Response: P/U will be this FRI (23rd). Will AM p/u work???? Payment cash at delivery, I trust people pretty much, haven't been taken yet. Property just doesn't come off truck until paid. I will try to check again later tonight or feel free to call when given phone#. Thanks Mike (5/20/2008)
Response: still need the scooter shipped, I couldn't get a hold of the guy on the other end to schedule a pickup time for you so Friday couldn't work. et me know if you are able to ship it for me anytime in the next few weeks. (5/25/2008)
Question: Hello - would the shipper (or originating location) be willing to place & secure scooter to suitable skid / long pallet so as to be acceptable for common carrier service? ... misc parts can be boxed up & placed on same pallet ... THX (5/27/2008)
Response: I will check, if so what would your bid be, I already have a bid for $250 so it would have to be under that:) (5/27/2008)
