OK guys, I've started a USHIP bid thing, I'll keep everyone posted on how things are going. This is my first time organizing anything like this, so bear with me. I’ll also listen to any suggestions from others involved in the shipment. I am assuming everyone who has said they are in are still in on the shipment.
My bid is for 11 machines, so that leaves a spot or two open. dmachry, if you want in, there's a spot for you.
As per Gerry's recommendation, I've set the pickup to be on, or shortly after the 27th f April
The drop of area I've selected for the shipment will be in Mississauga. (Probably in Meadowvale, near my house. Most likely the Meadowvale Town Centre parking lot) I won't know what day pick up will be until I hear from potential shippers. I’ve given a “one week after the 27th” spread. Basically, the machines will likely be dropped off in a parking lot, so if you aren't able to pick up the machine at that time, on that day, you'll have to have someone pick it up for you. (I have no storage for anything more than my own machine)
Once a quote has been given to me by the shipper , I’ll be able give everyone their cost for shipping. Payment before shipping will be made to me in one of the following ways;
• EMT (email money transfer)
• Deposit into my account
• Delivery of cash to me in person
I WILL NOT ACCEPT PAYPAL. I am not made of money, so I cannot spot anyone until they pick up their machine. Payment to me will have to be made to me before I can pay the shipper.
Let me know what you guys think.
Tim.
