paul1927 Posted June 21, 2007 Report Posted June 21, 2007 Since it seems like I'm going to be buying more Qs in the future this is of vital importance! The shipping quote that Dennis gave me for my second Q was a very pleasant surprise. At first glance I thought well it is going to be shipped without the liftgate service and that accounted for the good price. But, the invoice shows liftgate service is included. Perhaps this particular shipper doesn't charge more or doesn't charge much more for a truck with a liftgate? Anyhow, watching my first Q arrive I had thought the shipper should have been able to just roll the Q off the truck on a ramp. Just like was done with my oversized refrigerator years earlier. Considering that I by myself (a small guy) was able to move the Q a fairly long distance using only the disassembled shipping crate as a tool, it seems like a shipping company shouldn't have that much trouble getting it off the truck using just a simple ramp. I haven't seen any posts from Dennis lately and hope he is just taking a vacation. Of course, it would have been more considerate if he delayed his vacation until after my Q was delivered.

I gotta tell you, they are MUCH more impressiove in person...pics just don't do them any justice That is very true, but because I already have one my expectations are sky high. Before I was just worried if I was going to open the crate and start cursing. Once I started taking the shipping crate apart I was very happy. Even when I found broken pieces I was still very happy because the Q impressed the hell out of me. Definitely the exception when doing mail order.
