Looking for some help

I work at a dealership in Massachusetts and have bought a car for one of my customers from a dealership in Whiteville. I'm planning on flying a driver into the Raleigh Durham airport and need to get him to the dealership. It's approximately 110 miles. If there is anyone who can help me out...I would appreciate it greatly. I'm willing to pay you for your time and effort. Please contact me ASAP!!!

Thanks in advance for your consideration!!!

Darlington will be closer to Whiteville. I have family in Whiteville and would rather drive from SC to get there than NC.

Thanks for your suggestions. I found a trucker to bring it back for $350.

Ken, Glad you got it worked out. I don't think you could have flown someone in here and gotten the car back to MA for $350. The auction is only a block east of the speedway and I've made that trip many times from Charlotte. It's an easy trip and quicker from Charlotte than GSO or RDU. The problem is the airfare will be much more expensive coming into CLT since we have almost no competition here. I think you struck a good deal.

Thanks Mike...I lucked into a deal...most guys wanted $750+ to ship the car. I managed to find a guy who needed one more to fill his truck...so...I basically got it at 1/2 price!!! The only downside is that I won't get the car for a week to ten days.
