I’ve sold a couple courage to people that didn’t go with my recommendations on the shipper, had three of them nearly had significant problems. I was on hand for the loading and prevented certain damage. Not everybody knows what they are doing.
Your best price is going to be if you are completely flexible on pick up and delivery dates and let them use your car to finish making a load, when they need it. Delivering the car for loading and picking it up from unloading at local truckstops or other convenient locations for the truck will also help.

So, sounds like I was lucky...or rather, the buyer was.
