Questions for this shipment:

Question: I offer $100,000 Cargo coverage at NO additional cost to you (11/3/2005)

Response: I liked your reviews, and that you are a retired serviceman. Your quote is about 500 more than 2 others I've received. Is this negotiable? I understand that you also have bills to pay, and have to earn a profit. (11/3/2005)

Question: Im from Collins! Small world isnt it. Im may be interested in making a bid, do you have solid dates yet? (11/4/2005)

Response: Oh, if you can give me the lowest, or close to the lowest quote, I'd like to keep the money with someone with some ties, if you know what I mean. Thanks, and God Bless. (11/4/2005)

Question: Ive been in Hattiesburg for the lst 4 years but spent 28 years in Collins. All my family is still there. Were you in Collins when hurricane katrina hit. I dont think things in south MS. will ever be the same. Ill get back with you soon, I need to take a look at my schedule and the exact mileage. Will this be coming back into town or out in the county? (11/4/2005)

Response: We arrived 4 days prior to Katrina, so things were a total mess here. Major damage, and the storm was the worst I've ever encountered. We live in town, near the hospital, so no problems finding it, and no probs with dropping it off, backing in, nothing like that. (11/4/2005)

Question: Wow I am from Williamsburg. Never thought I would see a load going there. Hey I can do this for $1800.00 and would love the chance to stop in and see my Nana. Please let me know so I can except another load that drops near Big Bear then puts me in the area to pick yours up! Thank You! (11/4/2005)

Question: I have already bid and am currently the lowest. I was just offered the opportunity to move a few more trailers for FEMA from Ca to New Orleans. I;ve been doing that for a month now, however did bid on your item first. I am a little concerned about the comment you made about giving the work to a certain person. Are you planning on choosing by price and quality or what? I would love to earn your business and would consider dropping my rate an additional $100 to do it, but I would like to know if I am even being considered. Thank you. (11/4/2005)

Response: Sorry if my comment caused you concern. My intent was not that, however the other driver did have consumer feedback, and a positive rating. I am looking for reliability, integrity, and price, in that order. The trailer may not be in for another week I just found out. I will keep everyone posted. (11/4/2005)

Question: Hello! I'll tow your boat after thanksgiving for 1880,door to door.please click on my username for feedback and profile.Thanks! Glenn (11/4/2005)

Question: I can appreciate that. I have many happy customers and can provide referrals. I have a 99.9% from our Ebay store with over 600 transactions as well as shipping and purchased items. My wife and I run this as well as our Ebay store and are honorable Christians. We don't cheat people and expect the same of the people that we work with. I hope that this arrangement works for you. I am trying to get a back haul to get home to Missouri. Thanks again <>< (11/4/2005)

Response: Thank you for your interest. I am glad to hear people state that they are Christian, and not afraid to admit that, and that they are honorable. I wish you all the best of luck in your business, and may God Bless you both. (11/4/2005)

Question: I will rebid I want you to keep in mind I DO OFFER full Insurance (TRUCKING) at NO additional charge check to see what others offer to compare. Thank you (11/5/2005)
