Question: hello, do you have a target price in mind that you feel is fair for the two of us. I sold a trailer here in MA and the person who bought it is in MO and he would like me to trailer it out to him, Therefore, I have an empty two horse trailer going out and could help you out on your shipment.
thanks

Response: Thanks for the reply. I have only received one quote so far, it was for $700. I was hoping to keep it under $600, but have to see what seems the going rate. Because I'm trying to buy the pony with this in mind, I'm also hoping the owner doesn't change her mind about selling - that has happened to me twice this year! Thanks again.

Response: were you successful at buying this horse? I hope so, let me know. I would love to help you out still.

Response: Hey, I finally got the seller to commit and the ball is rolling! I'd still like to accept your bid of $550 for shipping this little mare. Please let me know your time frame and where/how you would like payment. I anticipate the health papers will be drawn up the first of the week, she already has a Coggins test result.
Thank you and hope to speak with you soon!

Response: The seller finally responded, but she hasn't committed. If she won't commit by Saturday, I will cancel my request for bids. The gaited pony is extremely nice, but I could have bought four or five others in the time frame I have been negotiating in! Will let you know, and thank you.

Response: hello, I just got back to my computer from the weekend. I can probably still help you with this. HOw soon are you looking to get this done. Please get back in touch and lets talk the next few days to see what we can do.

Response: The deal has been finalized and the mare will be ready to go anytime after tomorrow, 8/27. How may I go about finalizing a contract for shipping with you? Thanks! (8/26/2008)
Response: Hello, thanks for getting in touch with me. I still have the trailer that I have to bring out to IL. I am going to talk to them about doing it sooner. I was unsure about when you might be ready so I told them Sept 16. I am assuming you would like your horse before then. I might be able to do it this weekend. If I can, will that work for you? If not do you want to wait till the 16th. I will be checking messages all night tonight so I can respond back as soon as I hear from you.
thanks

Response: I would like to get her here in Ohio before the middle of September if possible. What was your bid and how may I contact you? Thanks! (8/28/2008)
Response: I would have to leave a bid for you to accept. Then once you accept our numbers and emails are exchanged. I am just trying to figure out now when I can get back out there. I am going to try for next weekend, but I am unsure still. I know I can do it around the 18th of Sept but that is so far away.
Let me work on it today and tomorrow and see what I come up with.
thanks

Question: If you can finalize the sale this weekend, I can offer shipping on 8/18 for $435. Does the pony have a current Coggins? Health certificate could be done even on Monday. Michael (8/14/2008)
Response: I was unable to get the seller to commit; she would prefer to sell locally and requested I wait til the weekend was over before she would decide if I could purchase the mare. Sorry, and thanks for your bid on shipping!
Susan (8/16/2008)
Response: Thanks for the reply - sorry to hear about your trouble with the sellers - this year did seem to be a buyers' market to me! Keep us in mind, if the sale does go through, we do have another trip from Goshen to St.Louis in the works. Good Luck, Michael (8/16/2008)
Question: I have a trailer in that area Sunday or Monday....can you ship that early? I have submitted a bid good for these days only... (8/29/2008)
Response: Will this be tomorrow and the labor day Monday or the following Sun/Mon.? (8/30/2008)
Response: It would be this Monday... (8/30/2008)
Response: I'm so sorry; the seller says no one will be available until Wednesday, the third of September to load/release the pony. I appreciate your bid and would have taken it if not for this problem.
(8/30/2008)
Response: Unfortunatly I will not be able to layover that long...good luck with your transport...if anything changes let me know... (8/30/2008)
