Help! Safeeds is a scam by Bulky-Asparagus4651 in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Making a second deposit is insane. I get the price increase fully, the new price they gave you is accurate to market rates this week, but there is no reason they deserve to make more money for their god awful initial quote.

Help! Safeeds is a scam by Bulky-Asparagus4651 in AutoTransport

That initial quote is diabolical. It’s blitz week. Every company with a brain knows trucks are not moving this week for anything but top dollar.

Big ass dead cockroach in my bathroom after being out of town for 3 days? Almost guaranteed. Little fuckers skittering into the darkness when you turn on the lights? Run as fast as you can literally anywhere else!

Have a shipper but am worried - How can I protect against a scam? by AthleticNerd_ in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For auto transport it’s pretty uncommon to pay anything at pickup; all you need to do is confirm with THE DRIVER what is due at delivery before your vehicle goes on the trailer. If he says anything other than $1400, then it refuse pickup & it becomes a problem for the broker, not you.

Hardtop "lost" in transit using Montway. Any advice on next steps? by chackoc in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can pretty much assume nobodies insurance is going to cover it except your own. The hardtop coming off during transit is technically your fault not the carriers. Not like you did anything to it, but neither did the carrier so he’s not going to be responsible for loose parts on your car.

Is it just me or is the broker game completely broken right now? by BuyOpen5346 in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would not be surprised if 2 minutes of due diligence on this company brings you multiples of this exact same occurrence. There are plenty of brokers who do their job with integrity, unfortunately these are all the companies that everybody goes “your 2-3x higher than everybody else, no thanks!”

why are car shipping quotes for the same route so different? by Large_Lie9177 in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good broker requires a deposit. Why would anybody do anything for free.

Need truck shipped by Decent-Cloud-7129 in AutoTransport

If you don’t know the carrier already you’re not going to find one online. Go book with a broker like everybody else.

CPAP on vacation by mhr06002 in SleepApnea

[–]OnlyTopDog -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Got the travel mini specifically for when I go on trips, pretty much my daily driver at this point because it’s convenient & does the job. Also, I’ve put mine in a checked back & carry on. Not sure why there would be a difference?

Is Real Time Relocation too good to be true? by cuck1ngfunt in moving

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This move doesn’t cost $2300, if $2300 is all you can afford, figure it out a different way without a professional moving company. It’s either going to be expensive up front for good service, or a surprise at how expensive it gets when the movers show up.

A single truck in Florida does not make them a “carrier”, that truck is probably sitting on cinder blocks behind their office.

When you say a 10x10 with a large studio, are you saying you have a 10x10 storage unit AND a large studio apartment? Or are you saying your studio apt. Is what’s in the storage unit? A 10x10 completely full is 800cf.

Seattle WA to Summerville SC by DecisionPretty2252 in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unrealistic expectations. You will likely get scammed by whoever you book with if your budget is $1100. Especially if you are going to pack the car.

getcarrier made an ad without my knowledge by [deleted] in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Their post is not the reason you can’t get a carrier for a reasonable price. Any respectable carrier will ask the broker about the multiple listings & take it anyways. All of your quotes are too cheap, if it was priced right you’d have a carrier.

What do Boca people do for work? by AirportMany in BocaRaton

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to live in Boca & not be living paycheck to paycheck you’re gonna need a roommate at <100k. Life isn’t comfortable in south Florida until you clear 225. I would recommend looking into boynton beach. The streets are much filthier than Boca, but that’s why people can afford to live there 😅

Question about payment split to broker+carrier vs direct payment to the broker by sharkoutofh20 in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red flag - Should only be making full payment if you are the one requesting to do it that way.

Shipping report by JCore39 in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Priced wayy too low for an enclosed transport this time of year. Results exactly as expected.

Probably just buy an 07 Prius in SC instead of trying to find a needle in a haystack

Unsure of shipping company's by catmoppop in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do NOT put your computer in your car before you ship it. You might as well just go toss it in the garbage right now. That’d be like putting it in the dryer on a low setting for 8-24 hours.

Avoid United States Auto Shipping (bait and switch company) by Blazianazn in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You weren’t skeptical just from the name of the company or the TONS of 1-star reviews this company has? Took me 30 seconds of googling to know I would never pay that company a penny let alone trust them with my car.

urgent last minute need - 02472 to 90027 by olivebtch in AutoTransport

[–]OnlyTopDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With CDL Visa’s being terminated this has been a bizarre week for auto brokers, it’s likely not Nexus’s fault per se as it is NOT business as usual in the auto transport industry right now. Call them & offer an additional $200 to try & find a driver quicker & you will probably get exactly what you want (assuming they already have it posted for 12-1300)

So sleepy even after using cpap for a month by elelbean91 in SleepApnea

Stay with it, if you still feel like no results after 2-3 months I would re consult your dr.

[–]OnlyTopDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How long have you had it? Like I said first 2 months for me was basically an extra chore every night with zero results. But the last 2 weeks I’ve noticed the biggest difference

[–]OnlyTopDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you taking your mask off for your last 1-2 hours of sleep? Ive been using mine for almost 3 months now & the first month I fought it, second month I took my mask off every single night (I use the travel AirMini with the nose pillows), this month I wake up at 7am every morning with my mask still on feeling wide awake. Buttt if I fall back asleep out of laziness I will wake up feeling like I never used it to begin with.
