I recently purchased a vintage 1975 Honda motorcycle through a private party in Des Moines, Iowa. I searched online for a transport/shipping company that could get my motorcycle to me in Colorado Springs. I didn't want to spend the time driving for two days, and pay for gas and a hotel. A Google search led me to uShip, and it reminded me of the eBay format, which I was familiar with. Within a day, I had several reasonably priced bids to transport my motorcycle. I received a bid from a shipper that was traveling through Colorado Springs inside of two days...who also had a very reasonable bid. After a few email exchanges, the deal was set. My shipper, Ryan, communicated well, and even called me as he was picking up the bike from the seller. He called twice within his trip to give me an exact timeframe as to when he would arrive. He showed up exactly on time and unloaded the bike from his enclosed trailer. The transaction was extremely easy and fast. I am very impressed with the whole uShip system, and have already recommended it to several friends.
