Correct. Sometimes the first “offer” is not what the final “sale” price is. Not that I condone low balling rates to see which sucker is going to bite, we certainly don’t operate that way. The problem is it takes too long to move the freight, going back and forth with one carrier after another, and you risk dragging your company name into the gutter to save a couple of bucks in the process.
Cool story but no one is paying 10500 out of the peg to make it work ( your scenario) . It is a scumbag selling freight all about him screw the carriers. While you may be a decent guy, decent broker that pays a fair rate they are not all like that and I firmly believe some asshole took it to get home instead of biting the bullet and putting it in the wind. The carrier that took it just call the repo depot now and get it over with you are an idiot for doing so/ Shit freight needs to sit until it because profitable freight when are carriers going to get that.
