Question: Would this shipment be available for pick up any sooner than the dates you have listed?
I travel this route regularly and could ship your belongings in my 24' Box Truck equipped with Air-Ride Suspension, 4000lb. Lift-Gate, E-Track Cargo Restraint System, Dollies, Pads/Blankets, all included at no additional charge. I am an owner/operator, not a broker. I am Licensed, DOT Certified, and FULLY INSURED. See my profile for company/vehicle information as well as 100% positive feedback with 0 cancellations. (1/16/2008)

Response: I am waiting for a couple items that are on backorder and are suppose to be in the Whittier warehouse around the 25th, maybe even sooner. I will not be able to give an exact date until I hear from the place where I got the appliances. What date were you thinking about for pickup? Since you travel this route frequently then maybe we can do it in 2 trips. The items on backorder are not as important as the ones ready to ship. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks! (1/16/2008)

Response: I would prefer to do it in one shipment. Please advise when all items are available for pick-up so I may submit a bid. (1/17/2008)

Response: I will let you know. Thanks! (1/17/2008)

Response: I will be in L.A. as late as the 23rd. I hope we can do business. (1/19/2008)

Response: Give me an offer so I can get an idea of what you want to charge for the shipment. I have other shippers interested and I want to know your price so i can make some executive decisions. thanks! (1/20/2008)

Response: I will be in L.A. as late as the 23rd. I hope we can do business. (1/19/2008)

Response: The only thing missing at this point is the refrigerator. Otherwise, everything else is ready to be picked up. Hoping the refrig will be ready on Tuesday, that would hopefully be in time for you on the 23rd? Let me know what day you will be in LA. Thanks! (1/19/2008)

Response: I will be in L.A. 1/21 - 1/23. My truck equipped with the air-ride suspension and lift-gate is exactly what is needed to facilitate the transport of your new appliances. Only servicing 1 or 2 clients at a time means small loads and guarantees your belongings will not be crammed into a truck/trailer with who knows what else.
Have you checked my feedback? (1/20/2008)

Response: When shopping for service providers make sure you are comparing apples to apples. My bid is inclusive of FULL VALUE INSURANCE. (1/21/2008)

Response: No doubt! I have every intension of using your services. The only problem is that I am waiting on the refrigerator. I am hoping tomorrow in the early a.m. to hear if it came into stock so it can be included in the shipment up to WA. It would suck to ship everything but the regrigerator and still have to deal with that one all by itself. It will end up costing more to ship the refrigerator by itself than if it was included with your shipment. Unless you have any suggestions. I will send you an email in the morning. Thanks! Geoff (1/22/2008)

Response: Thanks Geoff,
I'll be around(L.A. area)all day today and into tomorrow. If you need me to stick around a little longer so you may include all the items in one shipment let me know. I have some friends down here I can hang out with for a little while. Plus, being an owner/operator my Boss is pretty cool!
I will re-submit my bid if need be.
Please advise.

Response: HEY! STILL WAITING TO HEAR IF IT IS IN STOCK. AS FAR AS YOU HANGING AROUND FOR AWHILE, CAN YOU GIVE ME AN IDEA OF WHEN THE LATEST YOU WILL HANG AROUND THIS WEEK? THANKS! GEOFF (1/22/2008)

Response: Geoff,
No later than Thursday a.m.
I have to be back at the office Thursday afternoon. (1/22/2008)

Response: Brian.....I am not sure this is a good idea because the warehouse where you would pickup the stuff is not available until 10 a.m. In a perfect world I know damn well that by the time you leave those facilities it will be around 12 noon. As long as you are o.k with that then I am ready to pull the trigger. You made it sound like you could stay until thursday a.m but not specifically a time. Let me know your thoughts as it is getting to crunch time and I don't want to screw your schedule up because of this schedule. Maybe you will be down in a couple of weeks and we can do it at that point. It might make more sense. I will wait specifically for you. Let me know your thoughts......thanks.....geoff (1/22/2008)

Response: Geoff, I have arranged my schedule to facilitate the pick up
Thursday. I have also accepted a small job for tomorrow. If it takes longer I will make it work. I will re submit bid now. (1/22/2008)

Response: its a done deal. i will accept the bid once you confirm the following. I plan on seeing you in whittier thursday morning at 10 a.m. to make sure all product is in your possession and get a bill of lading from you so i can get the tax refunded on these appliances. as far as port angeles, washington is concerned, i will be in port angeles next wednesday mid afternoon, all thursday, and most of friday. was hoping to meet with you at the delivery address on one of those days so i can make sure all product is put into storage and locked. let me know if this works for you and let me know what day next week works for delivery. thanks for understanding this back and forth emailing but i am trying to make this all work for you considering the original pickup date on this shipment is a couple days away, which would have allowed for me to not be so panic. thanks for understanding! geoff (1/22/2008)

Response: Thursday @ 10:00am it is. I have a B.O.L. in hand.
Friday of next week is the earliest I can be in Port Angeles. It should be do-able however. (1/23/2008)

Question: Winter time conditions and milage up and back on this route mean more than $500 unless you find someone that is already going there and has room FYI...

Response: I appreciate the info, however, the target price of $500 is just a target, not the exact amount I am willing to pay. You have got to start somewhere price wise and $500 is the starting point. If you are interested in shipping the product then make a Bid. Otherwise, thanks for your opinion. (1/20/2008)
