Those were really good sets back in the day. There were certainly a lot of them around. |

That's the washer I grew up with---my mom had it until about 1981 or so. I fondly recall getting to help with the diapers for my brother...I got to supervise the dumping of the yellow diaper pail into the washer, then pushing down the safety switch to spin them out before washing. My dad would bring home 50lb bags of Sterox (local janitor supply's brand of phosphate laundry detergent) which went into a fibre drum next to the washing machine with the Kenmore measuring cup thrown into it.

I did post them as a set, with all the dimensions etc. I got a bid at $1100, before I posted them, USHIP had quoted it through the automatic system at like 600, which isn't bad. Just not paying that much for shipping (1100) lol. Thank you, -Tyler |

Try again and wait for private shippers to bid. |

As the first are almost always the highest. Sometimes you may have to relist once or twice before getting a good bid.
With Uship it usually comes down to someone coming from or going through wherever the item is and ditto to delivery (going to your area or through it). As such sometimes you get very reasonable bids but they can be last minute . That is someone who is making a trip in a few days and needs a response ASAP. Uship tightened things up from several years ago regarding shippers. This was good as it got rid of the bad apples. But now you have many more "professional" guys, which is good. But also rates have risen, which is natural one supposes. With anything large like an appliance you want to specify in your Uship listing accurate size, weight, etc.... and if there will be assistance at pick-up location to load. I always put in that want "White Glove" and covered transportation. Don't want my appliances traveling on the back of a pick-up truck during a rain storm. |

I had 3 machines shipped from Kevin to SC for $500.00. So, not horribly expensive. Kevin, I sent the sellers an email. I will let you know. Thanks. |
