Well there is almost no way around it...I have to sell my 1979 zx. I sold alot of interior panels to a guy and was unable to ship them...now the only way to do it is to sell my last zx...life officially sucks again.

 

What in the hell?

 

Yeah...it sucks...I sold all my black interior panels from both of my 82's which made almost a whole interior to a guy in Ga...he sent the money for the stuff and I spent most of it except what I figured it would cost to ship it...the shipping was more than triple what I thought it would be at almost $200...well the guy sent me $250...and this was back near Halloween....and I have been trying to get the money every since then to ship it...if I say I am going to ship something then I do it...I feel so bad about it and I was supposed to have $2,500 a few weeks back from my friend because he owes it to me for work I did for him an he loaned it to my uncle...he ask me first if he could and I said ok as long as you get it back fast.

Well my uncle skipped town back to Ohio with all the money and now here I am...pissed, depressed, and about to be Zless. But I have to keep my word and get this poor guy his parts.

 

Do you have a job?

 

you dont charge for shipping? hell i always include shipping in my price, ask him to pay shipping.

 

Nope...no job...it's complicated...family stuff.

 

yeah why wouldnt you charge shipping after you get a REAL shipping quote. and what company are you using? try DHL i shipped an entire tranny and manual setup for less than 80 dollars

 

Right, I just included the shipping in the price. I shipped a computer that weighed like 110lbs with the monitor and it was like less than $30...this stuff weighs like 20lbs and they want almost $200 to ship it and that the cheapest place...why you say..."DIMENSIONAL WEIGHT" a fictitious made up thing to get more money from less stuff...because the box is huge they say it takes up more space that they could have other stuff in...so they charge more...what's that about??

 

Space and weight is everything in shipping. If you have a 50ft long box that weighs 5lbs... you think they are only going to charge you for the weight of 5lbs?

 

I understand why they do it....for a while I was pissed because they were charging me more money because my box would take up space that they would use for something they may or may not transport. I guess i am just not meant to drive a ZX.

 

$971 from income tax...intercepted by the IRS for a student loan...$2,500 stolen by what used to be my Uncle....Car sold to ship some interior parts...priceless.

 

Because you underestimated shipping charges you aren't meant to drive a z? Quit being so dramatic.

Getchoself a job... part time if needs be... doesn't matter where... even a gentleman's club. Jobbies = monies.

 

It's depressing is all...to much crap on my shoulders all at once...I don't like screwing people over least of all fellow Z drivers...the messed up thing is, if I sell the ZX, ship the parts and make everything cool...thats when I will need the car. Grrrrrrr I wish I was Snw right now....then I could just have a gay lover pay for everything....

 

try alternative methods? i shipped a front body fascia (im sure no smaller than your box) via greyhound for like 50 bucks i think. did you try downsizing the box? wraping some stuff individually making the boxes smaller but just a few more of them? think damnit!

 

Actually the lowest shipping price was and is so far Fedex...we broke the parts down to 3 boxes and it was more by $30 ( The cost of the boxes plus tax)...DHL was the highest price all the way around...I fear now that with the price of fuel it might be even more...how did you ship via Greyhound???

 

go to their website and try finding it out, gotta drive to a grey hound station, was almost an hour drive for me but was still less then half the normal price

 

Honestly I never even thought about Greyhound....good lookin out...I will call tomorrow and see whats up.

 

HOLY ****....Snw is the man $46 to ship it HOLY ****, Snw I am gonna make sweet love to ya boy!!!! You is mine now so lube up!!!

 

that's good news! well part of that statement at least... lol

 

It's all good...Snw can wear the bra I sent him...lol...you know you tried it on Snw...didn't you?

 

lol, it scares me, i keep it in a box in my closet up on a shelf in the corner. i swear it taunts me. and really dude? thats some good news. hope that quote holds through then. i know, im a genious!

 

Thxone I sent you a p.m.

 

You should pm me, man.

 

let me know how grey hound works out for you
