Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Thank you very much for your bid request, but I filled up for my June trip earlier this month and am now working on my July trip. I could not transport during your timeframe. Thanks anyway and good luck to you!!! (5/28/2008)
Response: Thanks so much. We hope you have a safe and enjoyable trip!! Doug (5/29/2008)
Response: Hello Doug! Would you be willing to have a July pick up/delivery? I could do for you for $380 door to door in July or $345 if someone can meet me in Dallas (my final destination in TX) instead. Let me know if any of this works for you. Thanks!! (6/2/2008)
Response: Thank you for your question. Could you tell us estimated pickup and delivery dates for $380 door to door and respectfully, if $350 might work? Thanks again, Doug (6/2/2008)
Response: Pick up would be between July 6-7 (perhaps earlier as I wasn't planning on making the SF/Sac area a part of my trip in July so I may have to pick up a little earlier- but definitely not after the 7th) and delivery would be between the 9th and 10th. Was it that you were interested in meeting in Dallas for the $345? Thanks! (6/2/2008)
Response: Thank you for your response. Pick up and delivery times will be fine. We would prefer the door to door service for $380 so if you'll submit bid we will be glad to accept it. Thanks again and we look forward to doing business. Doug (6/2/2008)
Response: Okie dokey! One quick question. Will there be someone to help load? I will have help with me to unload, but for the N. CA portion of this trip, it'll just be me. Thanks! (6/2/2008)
Response: Yes, my Dad will help load. The desk is not very heavy but will need some blankets for protection and the desk will need to ride with the bottom-side up. Thanks again, Doug (6/2/2008)
Question: Hi We are profesional movers .Will triple wrap and pad for safe delivery.Diesel fuel at over $1.00 per mile makes it very hard to drive a big truck across country ,so this bid of $435 is below cost ,but it all helps to fuel truck. Edwin Fox Lane Furniture 39 years of good service. [furnbob} (5/29/2008)
Question: My driver could load Sat about noon, no price change. Larrbo (5/30/2008)
Response: Thank you for the info. Pick up Saturday, 5/31 at noon would be fine. Could we get the price closer to $300 if we picked up the desk in Jacksonville? We apologize for the late reply. Our Grandson's High School Graduation was tonight. Thanks again, Doug (5/31/2008)
Response: Sorry, we've had to adjust route and scheduling. since I had trouble getting Adrian to J'ville anywhere near profitable, I arrange for another driver to pick J'ville running from the east to west. Best of luck. Larrbo (5/31/2008)
Response: Thank you for the info. Sorry also for the delay in communication on this side. Maybe we can try again soon. Thanks again and have a great day!! Doug (5/31/2008)
Question: Sorry buy you are not looking at the real world cost of driving to your .house ,loading and packing and then buying fuel for a 2000 mile trip. I see it every day ,shoot self in foot as prices only get higher ,and then come back and ask for a rebid after offer has expired. There is no profit made in doing this just pays part of fuel cost ,less than 1/6th of cost of trip . And you think thats too much .Good Luck (5/30/2008)
