male narrator: THERE'S
A WHOLE NEW BREED OF GAMBLER... - STARTING TO PISS ME OFF.
- YEE-HA! narrator:
WHO RISK EVERYTHING TO HAUL THE MOST UNUSUAL ITEMS. - FIRE IN THE HOLE! - THIS THING
IS JUST AN ABSOLUTE BEAST. narrator: ONE WRONG MOVE,
AND THEY COULD LOSE IT ALL. BUT IF THE BID IS RIGHT... - WHOO!
- BOO-YAH! narrator:
THE REWARDS CAN BE HUGE. - MORE MONEY, MORE MONEY,
MORE MONEY. - [laughs] narrator: ON THIS EPISODE
OF<i> SHIPPING WARS...</i> - THERE IS
A 3,000-POUND HEADACHE. - IT'S A VERY RARE MACHINE.
IT'S OVER 100 YEARS OLD. - TAKE THE BAIT, FISH. - GOOD GRIEF. - I CAN'T SHAKE THESE GUYS OFF. - SON OF A [bleep]. - YOU'RE GETTING
ON MY LAST NERVE. - I'M SORRY, WHAT? - WHOA, WHOA-- - NO MATTER WHAT, AT ALL COSTS,
I WILL GET THESE LOADS. NICKELS HOLDING UP A DOLLAR.
LET'S GO. - I DON'T GET INTIMIDATED, BECAUSE I WAS RAISED
TO BE TOUGH. [camel grunts]
AH! - I'M VERY MUCH
AN AMATEUR AT THIS. I'M DEFINITELY HAVING
AN "OH, [bleep]" MOMENT HERE. - YEE-HA! EVERY TIME
I WIN A BID, MAN, IT'S JUST LIKE
I JUST HIT THE JACKPOT. - IT'S ABOUT MAKING MONEY. WE'RE LOGISTICS SPECIALISTS. JUST ANOTHER DAY AT THE OFFICE. OH, YEAH. - I'M GONNA STOP HERE SHORTLY
AND CHECK ON USHIP, SEE IF I CAN SOMEBODY
WHO'S GOT A LOT OF LOADS SO I CAN MAKE
SOME REGULAR MONEY. IDEALLY I DON'T DEAL
WITH THE CUSTOMERS. I LOAD IT, UNLOAD IT, GET PAID,
AND GO. - I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING
THAT PAYS REALLY WELL AND IS EASY TO LOAD. AND WHEN I UNLOAD IT,
FIREWORKS GO OFF. BUT I'LL HAUL JUST ABOUT
ANYTHING IF THE PRICE IS RIGHT. - IF WE CAN GET A SIMPLE,
DECENT-PAYING LOAD, THE ACTUAL ROAD TIME WOULD BE
A RECHARGE FOR US. - IN THIS BUSINESS, YOU WANT TO WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER. - IF I CAN COMPETE ON PRICE, MY CUSTOMER SKILLS
WILL GIVE ME THE EDGE. THESE GUYS WON'T STAND A CHANCE. narrator: EVERY DAY, USHIP.COM
POSTS SPECIAL TIMED AUCTIONS FOR SELECT TOP-LEVEL
TRANSPORTERS. FIRST ITEM UP FOR BID: A NEARLY 100-YEAR-OLD LINOTYPE. - WHAT THE HECK IS THAT THING? - MY NAME IS SADIE DEVORE. THE LINOTYPE
HAS BEEN SITTING AROUND FOR PROBABLY 28 YEARS
THAT I KNOW OF. IT'S BEEN A PART
OF MY FAMILY'S HISTORY. I WANT TO SELL IT TO SOMEONE
WHO CAN MAKE GOOD USE OF IT. - HMM. I LIKED THESE THINGS BETTER
WHEN THEY WERE SMALLER AND THEY CALLED 'EM TYPEWRITERS. - MY NAME IS PETE. I'M THE PLANT ENGINEER
AT PRUDENT PUBLISHING COMPANY. WE MAKE QUALITY GREETING CARDS,
CHRISTMAS CARDS. WE NEED THIS LINOTYPE TO PRODUCE
THE CARDS THAT WE MAKE. SHIPPING A LINOTYPE
IS VERY DIFFICULT. THEY HAVE THOUSANDS
AND THOUSANDS OF PARTS, AND THEY'RE ACTUALLY
VERY DELICATE. WE'RE RAMPING UP
FOR OUR PRODUCTION FOR THE YEAR. IF IT'S NOT HERE ON TIME,
THERE'S A $100 CHARGE. THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE. narrator:
THIS MONSTER OF A MACHINE NEEDS TO PICKED UP
IN MYSTIC, CONNECTICUT, AND DELIVERED TO A PRINTING
FACTORY IN LANDING, NEW JERSEY, BY CLOSE OF BUSINESS THAT DAY. - A 1920s LINOTYPE MACHINE. AT THAT SIZE,
WITH THOSE FUEL MILES, THEY'D HAVE TO PAY ME
A PRETTY PENNY TO HAUL THAT. - I CAN SEE
WHY MARC'S INTERESTED. THEY'RE BOTH OLD AND DECREPIT. - NO FORKLIFT AVAILABLE
AT PICKUP. OH, GOSH,
I HAVE TO RENT THAT. - THERE IS
A 3,000-POUND HEADACHE. - WELL, ARE WE BIDDING? - I COULD DEAL WITH A HEADACHE
IF IT PAYS WELL. $1,300. - LANDING, NEW JERSEY. I HATE THE EAST COAST. BUT THEIR MONEY IS STILL GREEN. - ROY'S WILLING TO GO
TO NEW JERSEY? IT'S MY DUTY TO
SPARE NEW JERSEY FROM ROY. - ALL THE WAY NORTHEAST, AND THEN GO ONLY, LIKE,
200 MILES? THAT DOESN'T WORK. - YEAH, BUT IT COULD STAY HIGH
AND STILL BE WORTH IT. - I CAN GO LOW
AND STILL MAKE GOOD MONEY. - ROY REALLY WANTS THIS THING. HE'S GOT TO BE CLOSE. I BET ROY'S STUPID ENOUGH
TO BITE ON THIS. I'M GONNA GO 1,000. [laughs]
- WHAT A DIT. WITH WHERE HE'S AT, IT'LL COST HIM MORE
JUST TO GET HERE. - EVEN AFTER EXPENSES, WE'LL STILL MAKE A PROFIT
ON THIS SHORT RUN. 998. BUT THAT'S AS LOW
AS WE'RE GOING. - IT'S GETTIN' THIN. - WELL, SON OF A [bleep]. 800. - I'M BIDDING ONE MORE TIME. BUT ONLY 'CAUSE IT'S
PISSIN' HIM OFF. - YOU STUPID [bleep]. - FINE, WE'RE OUT. - [bleep]. - NO, I'M OUT. - SON OF A [bleep]. - OH, [bleep]. CROBBIE AND JEN ARE OUT? THAT'S NOT GOOD. - I SHOULD BAIL ON THIS ONE. MARC WILL BE STUCK WITH IT AND BE [bleep] HIS PANTS. - [bleep], COME ON, ROY. - THIS IS FUNNY. BUT IT'S QUICK EASY MONEY. - TAKE THE BAIT, FISH. - BUT IT'S NOT
A GOOD ENOUGH JOKE TO LOSE EASY MONEY ON. [bell rings] OVER. - WHOO! ALMOST SHARTED. - OOH, NOW I GET
TO GO TO MYSTIC. WHOO-HOO. SO WE'RE IN MYSTIC, CONNECTICUT. GONNA PICK UP A LINOTYPE. WELL, I KNOW THIS THING'S HEAVY, SO I HAD A FORKLIFT
DELIVERED THERE. SEE WHAT KIND OF FUN WE HAVE. YOU SADIE? - HI, ROY. SADIE DEVORE. - HOW YOU DOING?
LET'S GO LOOK AT THIS LINOTYPE. - LINOTYPE?
YOU WANT TO SEE MY LINOTYPE? ARE YOU GONNA
TAKE THIS AWAY FOR ME? - NO, I JUST THOUGHT
I'D COME LOOK AT IT. - [laughs] COME ON. IT'S QUITE AN INVENTION,
WASN'T IT? DO YOU WANT A SODA
OR A GLASS OF ICE WATER? - NO, MA'AM, THANK YOU.
I APPRECIATE IT. I HAVE SODA IN THE TRUCK. - HOT TEA?
- NO, I'M ALL SET. I'M GONNA FIGURE OUT HOW
TO GET THIS THING IN MY TRAILER. - TOO BAD YOU DON'T HAVE
A CONVERTIBLE. - IF YOU'RE LOOKING
FOR SMALL TALK, YOU'RE BARKING UP
THE WRONG TREE. - SEE THE KEYBOARDS? - YEAH. - IT'S NOT EVEN
LIKE A TYPEWRITER. - ONLY TWO WAYS TO DO THIS: EITHER JUST LOAD IT
OR DRIVE AWAY FROM HER. - YOU'RE TOUGH. I CAN TELL. - I'LL TRY TO LOAD IT. I'M GONNA HAVE TO CALL IN
TWO MOVERS: ONE TO HELP ME, AND ONE TO HAUL HER OFF. YEAH, THIS IS ROY
FROM ARBIE'S TEAM. I NEED TO SEND ME
A COUPLE OF GUYS. ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. - HERE THEY COME. - MY MOVERS? - WE'RE HERE. - HERE TO HELP?
- WE'RE HERE TO HELP. WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. COME ON UP. THERE YOU GO. [forklift beeping] - GOOD JOB. - THE LAST THING I NEED IS THIS LADY BUGGING ME
WHILE I'M TRYING TO DO MY JOB. THIS IS WHERE IT [bleep]
STARTS GETTING BROKE. NOW WHAT I WANT EVERYBODY TO DO
IS STEP AWAY FROM THIS. I WANT NOBODY GETTING HURT. - ROY, WHAT DO YOU NEED? GO, ROY. - EVERYBODY BE QUIET. [wood creaks]
- OOH. - I JUST WENT THROUGH THE DOOR
ON THIS SIDE. - OH, I HEARD IT CREAKING. - DO YOU MIND? I'M THIS CLOSE
TO GETTING A ROLL OF DUCT TAPE. - SHOULD WE PULL THIS OVER, OR PULL THE SKIDS OVER THAT WAY? - I'M JUST GONNA SUCK IT
IN THE TRAILER. - HE'S GONNA BREAK HIS DOOR. OH, MY GOD. - I NEVER KNEW IT'D TAKE
A LITTLE OLD LADY TO THROW ROY OFF HIS GAME. - OH, DEAR. WHOO-HOO! THEY MADE IT. TAKE IT EASY. - [under breath]
SHUT UP AND GO IN THE HOUSE. - GO SMOOTH. - THAT WHOLE PROCESS STUNK. narrator:
NEXT USHIP ITEM UP FOR BID: A FARM TRACTOR. - MY NAME'S JARRETT, AND I, UH... BROKE DOWN. I PICKED UP THIS LOAD IN IOWA,
MADE IT TO TENNESSEE, AND I'M STUCK HERE NOW. IF I'M NOT IN FLORIDA
BY TOMORROW, I'M OUT 3 GRAND. - DUDE, THIS LOOKS COOL. - PROBABLY IN A CORNFIELD. - I PUT A PICTURE OF A TRACTOR
ON USHIP INSTEAD OF MY BUS 'CAUSE IF THEY KNEW IT WAS ME, WHO KNOWS HOW LONG
I'D BE OUT HERE? - IT'S ONLY 820 MILES
TO FORT MYERS BEACH, FLORIDA, FROM NASHVILLE. - THE TRACTOR'S
THE SAME WEIGHT AND EVERYTHING, BUT THIS LOAD'S ACTUALLY EASIER. BUT IF I DON'T GET TO THE
DROP-OFF IN FLORIDA BY TOMORROW, I DON'T GET PAID. IF I DON'T GET PAID,
NO ONE GETS PAID. narrator: JARRETT'S BUS CONTAINS
A GIANT WATER TOY THAT NEEDS TO GET
FROM A REST STOP IN MOUNT JULIET, TENNESSEE, TO A RESORT
IN FORT MYERS, FLORIDA. IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS. - THAT LAST BIDDING JUST ABOUT
BIT ME IN THE ASS. I'M SHOOTING FOR THE STARS
FOR THIS ONE. - HOLY CRAP. - [laughs]
MARC'S AIMING HIGH. - ACCORDING TO THIS,
WE'RE CLOSE TO THE PICKUP. I MEAN, WE COULD BOOK A LOAD
OUT OF FLORIDA. THERE'S ALWAYS BOATS
LEAVING THERE. BOOKING A LOAD FOR THE RIDE HOME
IS ONLY SMART BUSINESS. - 4,800 FOR THAT LITTLE TRACTOR? THAT IS STILL OVER $5 A MILE
FOR ME. - I KNOW THIS IS GONNA GO LOWER. I MEAN, NOW IT'S
MORE THAN I'M GETTING FOR THE WHOLE RUN. - LOOK, IF THIS THING GOES
BELOW 4 GRAND, I'M BAILING. - IT'S NOT
WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR. - I WOULD HAVE TO RENT
A FLATBED AND WINCH IT ON. BUT STILL. - JEN WILL BE OUR COMPETITION? - YEAH. MARC AND THIS THING'S LOCATION? HE'LL BAIL. - WELL,
LET'S JUST CUT TO THE CHASE. HERE'S MY BOTTOM LINE.
THAT'S IT. - DO THEY ALWAYS MAKE THIS MUCH
WHEN I'M NOT BIDDING? - NOT THAT I WOULDN'T LOVE
4,000 FOR THIS, BUT I NEED SOMEONE TO DROP OUT. - THAT'S A DROP. - WE'RE STILL GOLDEN. WE CAN MAKE MONEY
ALL THE WAY THERE AND ALL THE WAY HOME. - I'M OUT. - THERE'S ONLY TWO BIDDERS LEFT,
AND TIME'S RUNNING OUT. - THIS IS STILL A NICE PAYDAY. - WE DON'T WANT
TO GO MUCH LOWER. - I CAN'T SHAKE THESE GUYS OFF. - 2,500. - I THINK WE BAIL. - AFTER THIS: 2,400. - I MAY NOT BE
THE MOST EXPERIENCED, BUT I CAN BEAT THE PRICE. 2,300. - JEN... SHE'S A GREAT GIRL, BUT AS FAR
AS HAULING MY STUFF... I'LL PAY THE EXTRA $100
FOR THE SKILL. - OH, WELL. WOULD'VE BEEN NICE. - HEY, WE WON. - JEN WAS THE LOWEST BID. BUT I CHOSE CHRIS AND ROBBIE BECAUSE JEN AIN'T SHIPPIN'
MY STUFF. - WE WON.
UH. UH. WE WON. - NOTHING PERSONAL. - THE LISTING JUST SAYS
THAT IT'S EXIT 226. I DEFINITELY SEE FARMLAND. - WHO'S THAT? - NO WAY. [horn honks] - IT BETTER BE A COINCIDENCE
THAT JARRETT'S HERE. - HEY, Y'ALL. YEAH, I'M THE, UH, SHIPMENT. [record scratching] I'M ACTUALLY BROKE DOWN HERE. I'VE GOT TO GET THIS TO FLORIDA. SO MY BUS IS THE TRACTOR. - WE AGREED TO SHIP A TRACTOR
AND NOT THAT THING. - YEAH, SORRY TO TRICK YOU
LIKE I DID, BUT, UH, I KNEW NOBODY WOULD PICK ME UP. - SORRY? YOU'RE SORRY? - PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME HERE, 'CAUSE THIS HAS TO BE IN FLORIDA OR ELSE I'M KIND OF SCREWED. I KNOW I KIND OF LIED, BUT I'M COMING CLEAN NOW. COUNTS FOR SOMETHING, RIGHT? - JARRETT GOT US
ALL THE WAY OUT HERE ON A LIE? NO ONE DOES THAT TO US. IT'S A NICE SOB STORY AND ALL, SOUNDS LIKE IT'S YOUR PROBLEM. WE GOT PLACES TO BE. LET'S GO. - THAT DIDN'T GO
ACCORDING TO PLAN. - JUST BE NICE. - YOU GOT TO BE [bleep] KIDDING. - WE CAN'T JUST LEAVE HIM HERE. - OH, BUT WE--
- JARRETT-- - IT WASN'T NICE
TO MAKE A FAKE LISTING. - I FEEL BAD FOR HIM, LIKE, EVERY DAY. I MEAN, IT'S STILL MONEY. WE'RE ALREADY HERE. - I'M NOT WORRIED.
THEY'RE GONNA DO IT. PROBABLY. - LET'S GET IT GOING. - IT'S ALL GREEN IN THE END. ALL RIGHT, WELL, YOU CAN
THANK ROBBIE FOR THIS ONE. I LOVE ROBBIE, BUT SHE IS
HOLDING UP EVOLUTION. DEAL. JARRETT SHOULD BE DEAD BY NOW. - OH, THANK GOD. GIX, IF HE BOTHERS YOU,
JUST BITE HIM. ONE FALSE MOVE, AND HIS ASS
IS OUT OF MY TRUCK. HOPE THIS DOESN'T TURN OUT
TO BE BAD LUCK. JUST DON'T TOUCH NOTHIN'. DON'T BREAK ANYTHING. - NOTHIN' BETTER
THAN A ROAD TRIP. LET'S HAVE A GOOD TIME, MAN. LET'S GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER. - WHY?
- OH, COME ON. WE CAN HAVE A GOOD TRIP
DOWN HERE. I CHOSE Y'ALL OVER JEN. I KNEW Y'ALL COULD DO THE JOB. AND WE'VE GOT TO GET TO FLORIDA
ON TIME. - YOU AIN'T GO TO WORRY
ABOUT IT; YOU AIN'T DRIVIN'. THE ONLY THING I NEED OUT OF YOU
IS PURE SILENCE. UHP--UHP--YOU'RE
ALREADY BREAKING THE RULE. - I LIKE TO TALK. I DRIVE EVERYWHERE BY MYSELF. SO BEING WITH THESE TWO
IS FANTASTIC. HEY,
WHAT'S THAT THING OVER THERE? - IT'S CALLED BIG BOY EQUIPMENT. YOU DON'T HAVE NONE OF THAT. - WHAT IS THAT
OVER THERE THOUGH? - DON'T TOUCH NOTHIN'. - THESE TWO ARE GIVING ME
A SERIOUS HEADACHE. - STAY IN YOUR AREA
ON THAT SIDE. YOU LUCKY YOU EVEN
HAVE THAT AREA. - GOOD GOD, Y'ALL ARE ANNOYING. - WHAT, I MEAN-- - I WONDER IF IT'LL AFFECT
MY USER RATING IF I KILL JARRETT. YOU'RE GETTING ON MY LAST NERVE. - OH, COME ON, MAN. IT'S GONNA BE A LONG RIDE. - IT'S ONLY 170 MILES,
THREE TO FOUR HOURS. VERY SIMPLE. [rattling] [bleep] WAS THAT? A LOT OF BIG BUMPS. [rattling] I WANT TO STOP
AND CHECK THIS THING OUT. STRAPS NEED TO BE TIGHTENED. [bleep] IS THAT? WHAT THE [bleep]? WHERE DID THAT COME FROM? - HMM, MAYBE FROM THAT BIG
LINOTYPE MACHINE? - THINK I FOUND IT. SHE WAS KIND OF DISTRACTING WITH ALL OF HER MOUTH RUNNIN', BUT NO IDEA
IF I COULD'VE BROKE THIS OR NOT. - WELL,
IT'S NEARLY 100 YEARS OLD. I'D SAY YOU COULD'VE BROKE IT. - WONDER IF I CAN WELD THAT. ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND OUT. LET ME TRY IT. I'VE NEVER DELIVERED
A BROKEN LOAD, AND THIS TIME AIN'T GONNA BE
ANY DIFFERENT. [engine turning over] DOESN'T MATTER
IF I BROKE IT OR NOT, I'M GONNA FIX IT MYSELF. [torch crackling] - WHAT THE HELL
IS REDNECK MACGYVER THINKING MESSING WITH SOMEONE'S
100-YEAR-OLD MACHINE? [torch crackling] - IT'S NOT HOT ENOUGH. MY LITTLE WELDER'S
ONLY SO POWERFUL. BUT IF THIS WELD HOLDS,
I'M GOOD. NOT GONNA DO IT. [bleep]. - MAN, HOW FAST ARE YOU GOING? I MEAN, I FEEL LIKE WE
SHOULD'VE BEEN FURTHER BY NOW. YOU WANT TO LET ME DRIVE? WE COULD MAKE IT IF I DROVE. ARE YOU SURE WE'RE GOING
THE RIGHT WAY? - NOPE. - CHRIS NEEDS TO KNOW
WE GOT A DEADLINE. IF WE'RE LATE,
WE DON'T GET PAID. WE'RE BEHIND RIGHT NOW. - YOU'RE NOT IN CHARGE HERE. - I AM IN CHARGE. I MEAN, I'M PAYING YOU
TO DO THIS. - IT BECAME MY RUN
WHEN YOU LISTED IT. - NO, NO, NO. I MEAN, I'M ACTUALLY
THE ONE PAYING HERE. SO I'M THE BOSS. - I'M KIND OF FEARING
FOR JARRETT'S LIFE RIGHT NOW. - YOU'RE MY TRANSPORTER. [cell phone ringing] - HELLO? - IS THIS ROY? - YUP. UH, I'LL MAKE IT THERE. - OKAY. - MM, BYE. - YUP, BYE. - THIS THING
AIN'T GONNA FIX ITSELF, SO I GOT TO GO 30 MILES
OUT OF MY WAY TO FIND A WELDER. HOW YOU DOING? I NEED YOU TO WELD THAT TO THAT. WHY DON'T YOU JUST
TAKE IT OUT BACK? I'LL GO SIT IN MY TRUCK. HOW LONG'S IT GONNA TAKE YOU? - IT'S GONNA TAKE 20 MINUTES
TO A HALF AN HOUR. [dog barks]
- WHAT? - THAT'S ROCKY. SAY HELLO. [dog growls] - OH, I BET IF ROCKY
WAS A LITTLE KITTY, HE'D GET SOME CUDDLE MINUTES. [buzzing] - THIS REPAIR HAS ME
UNDER THE GUN. I'M AN HOUR AND A HALF OUT, AND TWO HOURS
TO MAKE IT ON TIME. [torch crackling] THE THING THAT'LL PISS ME OFF
THE MOST IS IF I GET DELAYED, THAT'S IT. - OH, YOU WANT TO BE THE BOSS? - YEAH, I'M PAYING YOU. - THAT'S ENOUGH. THAT'S IT.
- WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "THAT'S IT"? - YOU SEE THIS REST AREA
COMING UP? YOU'RE DONE. YOU'RE DONE. - NO, MAN,
YOU AIN'T GONNA KICK ME OUT. - I'M LEAVIN' YO' ASS HERE. - [bleep]. - REALLY DROPPING HIM OFF? - OF COURSE
WE'RE DROPPING HIM OFF. THIS CLOWN
NEEDS TO BE TAUGHT A LESSON, AND I'M ABOUT TO DROP HIM OFF
AT SCHOOL. GET OUT OF THE TRUCK. - COME ON, MAN. COME ON, BUDDY. - BUDDY MY ASS. - LOOK, MAN, I MEAN, I WON'T BE ANNOYING ANYMORE. I PROMISE. - I'MA TEACH YOU
A [bleep] LESSON THIS TIME. - WHAT ARE YOU DOING? - FINE. LEAVE ME HERE. I'LL REPORT MY BUS STOLEN. - YOU'RE REALLY
GONNA LEAVE HIM HERE? HE'S GONNA GET KIDNAPPED. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. - CHRIS, STOP. THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY
YOU'RE GONNA LOSE. QUIT BEING SO DANG HARDHEADED. WE ALREADY WASTED A WHOLE DAY-- - YOU WANT TO DEAL
WITH MORE OF THAT? - NO MATTER HOW MUCH
YOU HATE HIM RIGHT NOW, AND NO MATTER
HOW ANNOYING HE IS, YOU NEED HIM. - ROBBIE'S RIGHT. WITHOUT JARRETT, WE CAN'T
DELIVER THIS AND GET PAID. JARRETT, GET YOUR [bleep]
IN HERE! I CAN PROMISE YOU NEVER AGAIN
WILL I NEED JARRETT. YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS
TO GET YOUR [bleep] IN HERE. - ALL RIGHT. I WON'T SAY A WORD. THAT LITTLE MELTDOWN
ALMOST COST CHRIS 2,400 BUCKS. - NEVER AGAIN. NEVER AGAIN. - ANYBODY HOME? - YEAH. ALL RIGHT, 60 BUCKS. - I'VE WASTED TOO MUCH TIME
ON THIS DAMN THING, AND I'M NOT GONNA BE LATE. NOW IT'S GONNA BE DELIVERED
NO QUESTIONS ASKED. HERE WE ARE RIGHT ON TIME. TIME TO UNLOAD
THIS 3,000-POUND PAIN IN MY ASS. I'M HERE TO DELIVER
THIS LINOTYPE. - LET'S DO IT. LOOKS AS DESCRIBED... SO FAR. - SMOOTH LIKE BUTTER. THIS GUY HAS ABSOLUTELY
NO REASON TO COMPLAIN. - THAT'S THE WAY WE BOUGHT IT.
WE BOUGHT IT BROKEN. - I'M SORRY, WHAT? - WE BOUGHT THIS
WITH THIS CAM BROKEN. BUT IT'S A NICE SURPRISE
ON THERE. IT'S LIKE A BONUS. - GET THAT THING OFF MY TRUCK,
WOULD YOU? SOMEONE'S GONNA PAY FOR THAT,
AND IT WON'T BE ME. SO WHAT DO YOU THINK? - IT'S A NICE MACHINE. IT'S NICER
THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. - WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT
SOME EXTRA MONEY, 'CAUSE I PAID
TO HAVE THAT THING FIXED. - THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM. THAT'S NOT MINE. - WELL,
I DON'T THINK IT'S MY PROBLEM. - WELL, YOU'VE GOT TO DO
A LITTLE BIT BETTER JOB OF INSPECTING EQUIPMENT
BEFORE YOU LOAD IT UP. - I SAVE YOU SOME MONEY
BY GETTING IT FIXED FOR YOU. SO...
- WELL... WHAT DO YOU THINK IT'S WORTH? - LET'S JUST DO IT AT 1,200. - HOW 'BOUT 1,000? - OKAY, LET'S DO IT 1,000
AND CALL IT A DAY. - EIGHT, NINE, TEN. - TOLD YOU SOMEONE'S
GONNA PAY FOR THAT. I'M OUT OF HERE. - OKAY, ROY, THANKS. - ALL RIGHT. - I JUST WANT TO GET THIS OFF
AND GET OUT OF YOUR HAIR. - YEAH,
I DON'T LIKE THINGS IN MY HAIR. - EXCEPT GEL-- A LOT OF GEL. - WE ARE JUST RIGHT ON TIME. - OF COURSE WE'RE ON TIME. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU HIRE A PRO. JARRETT NEEDS
TO HURRY THE [bleep] UP. - HEY, GUYS.
- HOW WE DOING? - GOOD. ARE YOU HERE TO DELIVER
FOR HOLIDAY WATERSPORTS? I MEAN, WHAT IS THIS? - THE GUY YOU'RE PROBABLY
LOOKING FOR IS BACK HERE. - OKAY. - JARRETT--
- HEY. THERE YOU ARE.
- HEY. I ENDED UP BREAKING DOWN, AND I HAD TO GET THEM
TO COME GET ME. BUT ALL YOUR STUFF IS HERE,
SO... - OKAY. YOU KNOW HOW
TO PUT IT BACK TOGETHER? - UM... - IF YOU CAN'T GET IT TOGETHER
AND MAKE IT FLOAT, THEN WE'RE NOT PAYING FOR IT. - WE MIGHT HAVE TO LEAVE
ONE OF THESE OUT FIRST TO GET THE RING IN IT. - WHOA, WHOA.
[laughter] - RIGHT, THERE WE GO. RIGHT THERE. ALL RIGHT. - THIS THING BETTER FLOAT. OR JARRETT'LL BE SLEEPING
WITH THE FISHES. - SEE IF YOU CAN PEDAL IT OUT,
GIRLS. [metal squeaks] - UH, ARE YOU SURE
IT'S PUT TOGETHER RIGHT? - OF COURSE I'M SURE. I THINK. - ALL RIGHT, PADDLE. ALL RIGHT, IT'S WORKING. IT FLOATS. - PEDAL HARD! - NOW I NEED TO GET PAID SO I CAN GET MY BUS REPAIRED
AND GO HOME. - WELL, HERE'S YOUR MONEY. - THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
- THANK YOU. - PONY IT UP, BROTHER. - CRAP, MAN. ANY WAY I CAN GET A DISCOUNT? - NO. - THANK YOU, MAN. narrator:
JARRETT WAS PAID 3 GRAND FOR DELIVERING THE WATER TOYS. BUT 2,400
WENT TO CHRIS AND ROBBIE. AFTER $300 IN EXPENSES, HE ENDED UP WITH JUST 300 BUCKS. ROY BID 797 FOR THE LINOTYPE BUT NEGOTIATED A FEE
UP TO A 1,000 BUCKS. AFTER PAYING
FOR A FORKLIFT, MOVERS, A WELDER, AND OTHER EXPENSES, ROY STILL WALKED AWAY WITH $540 FOR A FEW HOURS WORK. - WELL,
YOU GUYS WANT TO TRY IT OUT? - SURE.
- READY? [screams] [laughter] - IS JARRETT TRYING
TO RUN AWAY WITH MY GIRL? - I THINK WE'RE, LIKE,
HALFWAY ON THE OCEAN NOW. - MAKE ME ONE THAT SAYS ROYOTA. BIG FRIGGIN' WHOOP. I'LL BE [bleep]. COOL.
