Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Is the trailer in good condition? Tires, bearings,breaks all good? Is regestration current and are licence plates on vehicle? Also what are your target dates.Thank you for your time. (7/9/2008)
Response: the trailer is supposed to be next to new. there is no tag on the trailer, i would have to get that once i get the title. the auction closes today, and if i win, i will have 7 days to pick up the boat (7/9/2008)
Response: Thanks for responding .We are delivering a 24 ft Regal to Port Hueneme CA today (right next to Ventura) and will be in area for a couple days, then headed back to the East coast. If you win the bid and boat is "road ready" (tires/breaks good, bearings packed, lights working, ect. ) We will place a formal bid and get this back there to you pretty quick.We will check back with you later see how you've progressed.Good luck. (7/9/2008)
Response: that's great. but can i ask if you have any ideas as to waht it may be. is there a way for you to cut alittle off since you are going to be there already, if i pay you cash? the reason i ask is that the shipping charges have alot to do with how much i can bid, so the lower the shipping, the more i can bid if i get someone bidding against. at this time, i am the winning bidder and there is only 4 hours left on the auction.so,i would be greatful for a quick response. thank you so much. marty (7/9/2008)

Question: (7/9/2008)
Response: I DID NOT RECIEVE YOUR QUESTION (7/9/2008)
Response: No Problem,we just resent and will wait for your approval. I'll be standing by so if you have any more questions let me know. It is listed under cperk22. Craigco Transport. (7/10/2008)
Response: WELL, WE HAVE A PROBLEM. THE FUNDS I HAVE DEPOSITED WILL TAKE 3 DAYS TO CLEAR. THEN I HAVE TO OVERNIGHT A CASHIERS CHECK TO THE SELLER, BEFORE SHE WILL RELEASE THE BOAT. I WANTED TO GIVE YOU A HEADS UP AS SOON AS I FOUND THIS OUT, BUT NOW MY PROBLEM IS THE I HAVE PAID TO BOOK THE SHIPPING. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO, OR WHAT CAN I DO? THANK YOU (7/10/2008)
Question: Hi, We have placed a bid for you as you requested earlier. Sorry took so long to get back to you but as I said we just arrived in Cali today and had to unload and deliver. It is listed under cperk22 ( I know you have alot of bids right) and we worked up a bid at $1900.00 which is best we could do and can only do at this price if Boat is ready to go within the next 2 days other wise bid would be higher.. Sorry for the short notice. I'm usually very flexible with dates and times but I'm trying get back to east coast pretty quick for my Wifes Birthday on the 15th.We are fully insured also and if no plates on vehicle we have temp to use.Thanks for your interest at any rate and good luck to you either way. (7/9/2008)
Response: I DON'T KNOW IF YOU SENT YOUR E-MAIL BEFORE I RETURNED YOUR FIRST, BUT: WHEN WOULD YOU EXPECT TO BE IN NORTH CAROLINA WITH THE BOAT? HOW WOULD I GET YOU PAYMENT BEFORE YOU PICK UP OR BETTER YET, SINCE YOU WOULD HAVE A 10000 DOLLAR BOAT, COULD I JUST PAY YOU THE 1900 WHEN I RECIAVE THE BOAT. THAT SURE WOULD BE EASIER ON ME BECAUSE I AM ALREADY HAVING TO SPEED UP GETTING THE SELLER FULL PAYMENT TOMORROW, SO YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND LEAVE WITH THE BOAT. I COULD GET THE PAYMENT TO HIM AS SOON AS TOMORROW AFTERNOON, YOU COULD PICK UP THE BOAT THEN, AND I PAY YOU IN FULL ONCE YOU ARRIVE. ANYWAY THAT COULD WORK OUT FOR YOU? (7/9/2008)
Response: (7/9/2008)
Response: I AM SORRY BNUT ALL I GET UNDER YOUR QUESTION IS 2 SETS OF QUOTATION MARKS. HAVE YOU RECIEVED THE 2 E-MAILS THAT I HAVE SENT YOU ? MARTY (7/9/2008)
Response: The way our customers usually work with us to make it easiest for all parties is to simply send full payment for item being bought to seller and also include our deposit to the seller who in turn hands the deposit to us at pickup. It is our standard practice to have deposit up front to offset price off fuel ( cash cheaper than credit ) and to cover any repairs (ie. tires, small wiring repair ect.)if need be. .And unfortunataly we have run into a couple times making a delivery and payment not ready at timeof drop off, which really takes a toll after long haul, so for that reason we make it standard practice to get a deposit. Friday will be fine if that make things easier on you and we could have there for you by 15th or 16th depending on what time picked up safety and your vehicle are first and foremost so I do allow a little time for rough weather just in case.Once you accept bid you will be given our info and we can dial everything in. (7/9/2008)
Response: SIR, I AM SO SORRY, BUT I THINK THAT I ACCEDENTLY DELETED YOUR BID. THERE HAVE BEEN SOOOO MANY OF THEM. I DO WANT YOU TO DO THE TRANSPORT. I AM WAITING FOR THE SELLER TO GET BACK WITH ME ON HOW SOON HE COULD HAVE THE BOAT READY. SO, COULD YOU SEND THE BID AGAIN. AND I AM SO SORRY FOR THAT. MARTY (7/10/2008)
Response: Sorry Marty, Having a little problem emailing you back. I have written a couple time and sent question thru but had message from uship saying they need to review content of message and then put thru. (7/9/2008)
Response: HAVE YOU RECIEVED THE LONG E-MAILS THAT I HAVE SENT TO YOU? (7/9/2008)
Response: You may receive last message a couple times as they didn't go right thru on first tries as i said so if you do I apologize. Uship will sometimes hold messages if they feel content needs to be reviewed. No contact or legal advice can be given so sometimes they hold them to to check. (7/9/2008)
Question: I will try this again in a new thread. What our customers usually do to make things easier on all parties is to send full payment to seller along with our deposit and the seller in turn gives us the deposit. We have made it standard policy to get deposit to cover fuel and any minor repairs needed if need be ( tires or small wiring repairs) and have had a few time when we made delivery and payment was not ready as promised so we just make it standard on all shipments. Friday would be fine if easier for you. We will have to you by 15th or 16th depending on when departing. Once you accept bid u will get our contact info from Uship so we can dial everything in. (7/9/2008)
Response: HOW DO I ACCEPT YOUR BID. OR HAVE I ALREADY, BECAUSE I DO WISH FOR YOU TO TRANSPORT MY BOAT. (7/9/2008)
Response: You just need to go onto the bid itself that was sent to you and accept it. It is listed under cperk22, the company is Craigco Transport. Once that is done and you and settle with u ship you will get our contact info and we will be notified to contact you. Hope to hear from you soon. (7/9/2008)
Question: you just have to accept my bid so we can communicate off of uship (7/9/2008)
Question: Congradulations on your boat, with the weight of your boat it will require a compliant carrier with DOT & MC to transport this interstate as in item 15 in user agreement as it says you must be compliant with State and Federal laws to haul what you bid on, $3200 if we can help you. (7/9/2008)
Question: Sorry I forgot to add to check all tsp for DOT & MC numbers at safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/CompanySnapshot.aspx as uship recommends, the MC number being the autority to haul for hire interstate. (7/9/2008)
Question: Hi Marty, Sorry about the email confusion.You might get duplicate messages as I said because I was trying to get back to you right away and they were not going thru. I'm gonna get a bite to eat real quick and then check back with you in about a half an hour to see if you had anymore questions. If anything comes up just ask and I'll get back with you asap.Thanks so much.cperk22/craigco transpot (7/9/2008)
Response: YES SIR. I THINK THAT WE ARE A GO THOUGH. WHAT I WILL HAVE TO DO IS GET WITH YOU IN THE MORNING, BECAUSE I HAVE TO GO TO CHARLOTTE, GET THE MONEY APPLIED TO A CREDIT CARD, COME HOME AND PAY WITH PAYPAL, BUT I SHOULD HAVE ALL OF THAT DONE BY LUNCH. SO I WILL SPEAK TO YOU THEN, BUT I AM PLANNING TO PAY FOR THE BOAT AND YOUR HALF, BUT I WILL JUST CLEAR IT WITH THE SELLAR.THANK YOU AGAIN, AND GET SOME SLEEP. YOURE GONNA NEED. (7/9/2008)
Response: Thanks, I will do that.Been a long day. Look forward to hearing from you tomorrow. Once you accept the bid you'll get our contact info and that number will reach my wife at home office and she'll get you all set up, or she can give you a call. Whichever you prefer. She handles all the paperwork but youll be able to reach me if you need to in the truck . Thanks and have a great night. (7/9/2008)
Question: If you have an opportunity, please review the following federal government website. Giving this site is allowed per Uship rules. HTTP://WWW.FMCSA.DOT.GOV/SAFETY-SECURITY/ETA/PART390.HTM, this federal government regulation states that over 10,000 lbs. combination, which is vehicle gross sticker weight and trailer gross sticker weight (sticker weight is what the manufacturer puts on the label as the maximum weight allowed), at that weight rating transporters need both MC# & DOT#. That is not the scale weight of truck and boat but the sticker gross weight. State DOT officers have authority to shut down non-DOT compliant transporters where stopped. Review licensing & insurance at safer.fmcsa.dot.gov This is not legal advice just what the federal government puts into law/regulation, and so you may be informed on transport regulations pertaining to transport of your boat. IMPORTANT: uShip does not screen or qualify TSPs for compliance with federal, state or local laws and regulations. Thank (7/9/2008)
Question: [removed – unrelated to services offered]! (7/9/2008)
Question: Just being in compliance with Uship agreement as all members should be, I see low bid is a compliant carrier! (7/9/2008)
