Response: Yes, hopefully there would be some cell phone communication as both ends are residencies. I said in my original request that I would wrap the unit in cardboard, however I wasn't sure how that process was being set up. I would prefer to not go to St. Louis just to do that. If so wrapped it would offer enough protection so that if the unit was laid on its side there would not be any damage, scratches, etc. I am willing to pay either the seller or you to wrap it for me if possible. I also estimated the weight and am waiting to hear the exact weight but I think it would be around 300lbs. I hope this helps. Both cell #s will be provided. Dale (9/22/2007)

Response: 1. I will not need to put this unit on its side. 2. I will platic wrap this unit at pic... 3. if you have looked at my profile and the time/dates fit your needs I will bid. I must leave for a wedding now but will bid when I get home later. Terry CRI123 (9/22/2007)

Response: I believe I understand your schedule and this is timely enough for me, arriving around the 30th in Austin. I will need more specifics so as to have someone there for sure at pick up. The location is very near the airport in Saint. Louis. The shipping location has weighed the unit, possibly with a home scale and come up with 195 lbs. I estimated 300 so we should be under that. I will await your bid and let me know if I can help further, Dale (9/23/2007)
