Additional Information: I have a large famed photograph that needs to be shipped from the N. Boston area to San Francisco. Its size wrapped is approx. 40x50x2. and it's not very heavy at all (one person can lift it). It is a wooden frame with Plexiglass, so it shouldn't be too fragile, and it is also wrapped already. It is worth more sentimentally than financially, it is a piece of art from a friend. I would really appreciate any help moving this piece in hopefully one trip. Report a Violation

Questions for this shipment: 

Question: What is it packed in? americanworldwidefrtsvcs (2/27/2006)
Response: Hi there! It was wrapped by the framer.It's wrapped with 2 layers of cardboard (the type that's bendable), plus stretchy plastic stuff (kind of like heavy duty saran wrap)and tape. It's reinforced around the corners and edges. It is not in a box but seems fairly sturdy. (2/27/2006)
Question: O.K. I'll bid on this. Do you want door to door service or can you pick it up from my dock in South San Francisco? Is there help for the driver at either end? It has a minumum weight of 100 lbs. americanworldwidefrtsvcs (2/27/2006)
Response: Hi there, I put my max bid at $75. I can't really afford $137. If you could do it for $75 I would gladly pick it up in S. SF. Either at home or in S. SF there will be someone to help the driver. It only weighs about 10 pounds. Let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks! (2/27/2006)
Question: I will rebid for a "will call" pickup by you in S. San Francisco. americanworldwidefrtsvcs (2/27/2006)
Response: We would really, really, really appreciate it if you could rebid for $100. We'll have to take our van down to SSF to get it. I know it's only a $12 difference but it's still more than our max. bid. Also, I wanted to let you know that we're going away for a week at the end of March so I would just want to know the approx. date of devivery to make sure we'll be around to pick it up. Thanks! (2/27/2006)
Question: I can pick it up and have it here in 5 days. I would call you when it is in and you can come down and pick it up. i'm afraid that's my final bid based on its size. Thank you. americanworldwidefrtsvcs (2/27/2006)
Response: OK. $112 will have to do! I think I may get it packaged even stronger if I can before you pick it up. Can you tell me when you can pick it up from Wakefield? (2/27/2006)
Question: I can pick it up any day of the week Mon-Fri. I will try to let them know about wht time my pu&d truck will be coming by. I will hten take it back to my dock and weigh it. Unless your dimensions are way off the price I gave you is the final price. americanworldwidefrtsvcs (2/28/2006)
Question: Go ahead and accept my bid and I will call you and set everything up.americanworldwidefrtsvcs (2/28/2006)
Response: The dimensions are correct but the weight is more like 25 lbs. Hope that's OK! I used a bathroom scale. (2/28/2006)
