only think that worries me is some guy in the suv takes a liking to it and "opps" he says " someone took it when I was in the restaurant!" Ed# In a message dated 8/17/2015 4:25:49 P.M. US Mountain Standard Time, rdawso...@hotmail.com writes:
Thanks Cory, I listed it with UShip, and will wait to see what happens. This was a great idea, I never heard of such a 'crowd-sourced' shipping service before.

These are best transported laying down once the paper and tape spindles are removed and preferably, that shipping screws anchor down the chassis (though I have moved them without). With UShip, you set an asking price with parameters, such as blanket wrap, or covered shipping. Everyone from professionals to those with room to spare in their SUV can then ask questions, accept the terms, or counter-offer. They don't get paid until you've received the item and are satisfied. With items like this, I almost prefer a private individual rather than a professional (bulk) mover. -C > > > On Aug 17, 2015, at 5:26 PM, Randy Dawson wrote: > > > Hi Classiccmp, > > > > I just purchased a ASR 33 teletype and now stuck with the problem of getting it here, its in Wisconsin and I am in LA. > > > > Its pickup, the owner will not pack and ship. > > > > Do you know of a freight company that will put it on a pallet, band it with care and take care of the shipping? > > > > Randy > =
