Default best company to ship a car with

I have been getting a few quotes for shipping my PA. I would like to know what company'* anyone has used in the past that has good cheap rates.

1999 Buick Park Avenue
56024 to 89701

These are the cheapest quote I have gotten so far

www.AAAT.com/CarShippers - $1100
www.DASautoshippers.com - $953
www.chariottransport.com - $880

thousands of shippers bid on rates. lowest rate wins or you can choose who you want.

we are not even close to discussing payment or price yet.

she is still yet to see the picture I emailed her. She was at the dentist (in the chair) last time I called her.

thanks for looking out though

I'm sure most scams are by people selling cars. Like this one -http://modesto.craigslist.org/car/489676198.html.

I'd also be very suspicious of anyone who would buy a car sight unseen.

WHAT NOT TO DO:

Fill out an online quote and include your email and phone number. So far, I have been called twice today, and have been emailed 12+ different quotes from different companies. I did not sign up for uship, so one of these companies must be selling my information to others. ugh
