Uship.com FTW!
09/07/12 05:43 AM


Anybody ever used uship.com before?

Quite possible saved my neck... my wallet for sure. Something to consider if you need to ship an arcade cab or other big item.

I had committed to a big piece of commercial equipment that weights 2,500 pounds and is 14 feet tall... but located in the east coast... it's a rare find and with any delay I would have lost the deal for sure, so yes, I stuck my neck out and committed to it before I knew how to actually GET it... and I had a pickup deadline of 48 hours or loose the equipment AND money.

I got shipping quotes from all the major carriers, and the price ranged from $4,000 all the way up to $12,000... which I can't do, and would have forced me to abandon the equipment.

I tried uship.com because I had nothing to loose, and a shipper picked up my load up with a bid for $524. Can you say SHWING!

It's not done yet, I still have to receive the item... but it's rugged steel, so... short of going off a cliff into an ocean... I don't see how this could go bad... I'll keep you posted.



IN YOUR FACE Booyah!
