hmmm yeah no worries, i quess i can chaulk it up to another, 'rookie' mistake of mine, I dont always get clarity on this subject(TONU).
Yeah it didnt actually p/u untill the next day (so only out the negotiation time on the phone :-p), but hey, this just seems one more example where the broker has more cards to get us to run cheaper in his arsenal then we have as a carrier. I mean as a broker, these two were obviously fielding other calls on their loads and seeing if they could get another carrier to run it cheaper. Just urrks me they were wasting my time.
I certainly wont lose any sleep over losing these loads, even after I negotiated higher it was still a rate most here say you wont pull for.
Hmmm imagine that...I run cheap freight, and I am still getting undercut by carriers willing to run cheaper :-p
