Buyer by ware!!!!!
I contacted FR8star because I was bidding on a tractor at Auctiontime.com and wanted to have the delivery lined up as quickly and cleanly as possible. I won the bidding and set in motion the p/u delivery for the next day after payment was confirmed. The assigned broker thru FR8star agreed to full payment upon confirmed p/u thru credit card transaction thru a secure site on line ( I did not do phone pay or PayPal as they wanted). Was assured that p/u would be 3-6 days and delivery 1-3 days later. Many more conversations later with BOTH parties and nine days, the dispatcher for the p/u broker calls and says that on the way to p/u at 3 pm the Friday before a holiday weekend, the driver's transmission blewout. I cancelled the P/U under threat that I will be liable for the cancellation. The Monday following this the mgr. for the transport broker was sending me a contract for P/U allowing another 3-6 days for P/U. I refused the offer. Wednesday morning I contacted a local dispatch agent and had my tractor unloading at my location by Thursday afternoon. Forget these guys, local haulers have more contacts and are more responsive.
