Response: thanks for letting me know. i'm receiving several offers, both on uship anbd privately. i won't necessarily take the lowest bid, since i'm impressed by your feedback and experience, but was wondering if you could beat the target price of $2,000 i listed. thanks and hope we can work together. this is my fifth fiberglass statue, they are always an adventure. george (9/15/2006)
Question: i have a flat bed with straps and padding to hold the load. The wont let me give out any ref. due to the rules im sorry about that. we have hauled two uship items today very happy people hope the post feedback as they said. It will be good. thanks (9/15/2006)
Question: George, QualityTransport here. I could offer you a 10% discount over the bid I placed if this would earn your business. I will resend the original bid, and place the new bid. I have other loads that might fill this slot I am offering to you. I am certainly not trying to push, I just wanted to be aware of this issue. I can handle this super Santa, and deliver it to you like only a pro can. Read my profile, give it some thought, and let me know what you decide. Thanks. (9/16/2006)
Response: thanks for getting back to me. when would you want to move him? is payment due on delivery? what method do you accept? i need to check with the people in acton to arrange a date and time. you can drive the vehicle right up to santa to load. the head and arm are removable. if you're using a flatbed you should be able to get him loaded without any equipment. they will have people to help load it and i'll have people on this end to unload. let me know if you need any other info and we'll try and finalize it. george (9/16/2006)
