Re: [Emc-users] OT: getting an auction purchase shipped

Just be aware that an auction house won't care about your machine as much
as you would...  They only care about expending the least amount of energy
and no money...

How to ship depends on what you bought.  It is a 900-pound machine or a
small cable?  I've sold both.

In the case of a 900 pound machine the buyer hired a trucking company and
the truck showed up at my place with a forklift.  Another time I sold a
very large air compressor and told the buyer "It is bolted onto the
concrete floor, come and get it." So three guys show up with tools and
dismantle it, removing the motor and then the compressor from the tank
loading each part onto a dolly than the truck. The buyers hire a
freight forwarding company.  There are freight brokers who will handle the
details.

If this is with a commercial auction house, send them email 
or call.
They probably have a lot of items that are bought out of 
town and have to

be shipped.  They should know what would be required.

Bidspotter is just a clearing house, like eBay, that makes 
listings by commercial

auctioneers available online.
