Once this happens, you are screwed because all shippers will see your request with price and know you are desperate, you will then end up paying more than the going rate.

Will NOT deal with brokers period. Had that happen once (first time shipping a car to Australia ) . Guys calling all day sayin they are goin to pick the car up that day! "Is this an enclosed trailer" ?? Ohhh NO.. Click. Ya smartin up very quick !! This car has to get here with no damage. Intercity spoils you.

Yea, I fully agree, you may think you are calling a hauler but you are actually talking to a broker. The haulers try to bid and pick up jobs on route to the furthest delivery, I waited over three weeks to get my car when it was supposed to take 7 days, when it arrived it was at the back of the trailer so the flat bed driver has to wait over an hour while the driver removed all the other card in front.
