Default Shipping wars

I saw that show on TV and when it came to having my Duster shipped from Arizona to Florida I went onto the Internet to see what my shipping options were. Anyway I found this website for USHIP and I used it. It is basically a shippers auction and clearing house. I had my Duster shipped for just under 800.00 and the job was done well. I recently bought a NOS quarter panel for my 81 Dodge Diplomat Coupe off of eBay classifieds that was in PA. I used USHIP again and got it delivered for under 200.00. I also found out that USHIP is the site that the TV show Shipping Wars uses. I just wanted to pass along that if you are buying a car or parts for a project this is the way to get things moved economically. I had gotten quotes from shipping companies too and some of them wanted blood and didn't want to deal with residential pickup or delivery.

Yeah it's actually kinda cool how they bid on shipping items. Too bad your shipper wasn't on the show then we all could have seen your car.

That would have been cool. I will have a new computer soon and then I will post pics of all my cars. This site bidding makes doing this much more affordable.
