I hired them off of Ebay for a truck I bought. They were a "prefered vendor" of ebay. I contacted them about getting a truck out of california to Wisconsin. I was told It would be on a truck to be delivered within 1-7 days. They would just need a deposit of $195 to process the tansaction. The quoted on ebay $890 after the call it went up to $1090 because it did not run. Having never shipped a car this did not seem unreasonable.

Now what they won't tell you...

NEVER PAY A DEPOSIT TO A BROKER UNTIL YOU HAVE YOUR VEHICLE!!! Express Auto Transport is a broker. They have no trucks. You car is put out to bid and pick off another website that caters to transporters. The deposit is the min profit thay will make off of you. Like the scoring on ebay Express has a 63% out of a 100% feedback on the auto shipping site. ALL FOR NON PAYMENT TO DRIVERS! This makes no one want to work for them and you car will sit forever. I ageed on a total of $1090 to ship my truck. They posted it as a $729 haul that no one would take. It sat for 2 weeks before I started to do my homework on how this is done. Now that's a $450 profit to take a phone call. Now they have your deposit and really don't care if your car ships at all!
I was able to set up an account with the shipping site and post my truck myself. It is still in California to be shipped this week. Beware and Be wise. Do your Homework Ahead.
