Anyone in Texas - Near College Station

I have a favor to ask...I just got back from Iraq last week and am currently in NC. I am trying to purchase some things for my truck from someone in College Station but they don't want to ship to me.

Is there someone near College Station that would be willing to pick these items up while I try to figure out how to have them shipped to me? I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,


Wayne

I know a guy who knows a guy, but he only moves "things" that require tighter security then that.

Thanks for the welcome...as far as the seller...I think it involves more than he wants to deal with. That is fine. I just want to be able to buy them and get them shipped. Yes, I'm willing to ship them. I'm trying to see if there is a way for me to get a trip down there and I'd take them to the post office or something myself. If I don't have to take a trip and someone can assist...that'd be great too.

Sounds like you are looking into taking a hop to get them and ship'em.

To be honest, much of the resistance is because you are a newbie, which many of the folks in-and-around the area would be hesitate to help. Can't blame them.

BTW, what service you in and how long?

Somewhat... I'm in the business and we move stuff all the time for people who are in need of help. I also get a lot of stuff that we find on the ground near trucks.
