    Gov Planet Sales Tax issue

    I had another interesting encounter with GP this week. This is a bit long winded and hopefully they will put something in place to prevent this from happening to anyone else but for now I just wanted to mention it to others. I hade 9 items I purchased between NV and PA locations on Monday. I...

    M915A1 Governor Help

    If this has the Allison Trans there is no way the trans can really limit your speed. Some off road trucks do have modified valvebodies to block the trans form going into high gear but I don't think you would get 58 mph with this truck if that were the case.. The Cummins fuel pumps typically...

    GovPlanet Pick Up Las Vegas

    Does anyone have a 3rd party to consolidate lots in Vegas. I have 3 lots I bought, Maybe 100 lbs max just need it all put on one pallet or packed well for UPS.. GP told me to use Craters and Freights which I will not do. Are there any independent guys out there? Has anyone used a UPS Store? I...

    Govplanet Credit Card Fees

    Yes that is true but for some of us who bid on a very select product offering where there are not many bidders to begin with, when I don't bid, the end result is that the product will sell much much cheaper, If I were to bid, even if I don't win, my bids help raise the final bid so they make...

    Govplanet Credit Card Fees

    Yeah, I can see them bumping the 10% fee to 12 or 15 and guess what when they do it will be another surprise to everyone.. I will be done for good if they do.. Not sure I will bid much at all now.. Its so **** time consuming and most people don't have all day to sit around and place bids.. I...

    Govplanet Credit Card Fees

    They have their processing company listed in checkout. I forget the name.. Honestly I thought at one time it was actually illegal to charge a processing fee like this.. Times are changing. I just wish they would have given customers notice. That is the big gripe I have with them.. I have not bid...

    Govplanet Credit Card Fees

    I understand the nature of CC processing fees, I run a small business myself. We do not charge CC fees per se however we do have different pricing levels for certain customers. Those who are on CC do pay a higher price which makes up for the fees. The point the bothers me the most is the lack of...

    Govplanet Credit Card Fees

    Well Seems Govplanet now feels they can charge us an additional 2.95% for making a payment with a credit card. This is above and beyond the 10% fee they already receive on the sales price.. This just started a few days ago and ZERO notice was given to their customers prior to placing a bid. I am...

    Packing and Shipping Chambersburg PA and Las Vegas

    I was able to get XPO logistics into both locations and make both pickups without too much trouble and the site in Chambersburg did shrink wrap the pallet for me.. We do have an account with XPO Logistics so our rates were good. If you did not have an account with negotiated rates you probably...

    Packing and Shipping Chambersburg PA and Las Vegas

    We used to purchase a good bit of material from GL out of OKC and Lockbourne and we had an independent packer/shipping in each location that would consolidate lots and prep for shipping for us. Does anyone have a good contact for this kind of work at these new locations aside from the commercial...

    Looking for M56 Scorpion Transmission Manual

    I had tried that and I get very little technical info. Lots of general Allison stuff but not CD150 related, A few other CD150 branded things but not the Transmission I am after. There was one site that looked promising TM-WW2 but that was the older CD150-3 manual. Appreciate your checking..

    Looking for M56 Scorpion Transmission Manual

    Looking for a parts manual showing the Allison CD150-4 Transmission. I found TM 9-2520-222-35 which shows to be a rebuild manual. Not sure if this includes a breakdown with Part numbers or if its just procedures for tear down and reassembly. Anything showing PNs with an illustrated parts...

    MEP803A 208V Wiring

    I understand what it should be reading at different selections just seems like allot of hardware for no real purpose. Why would someone need to check voltage or amperage from different legs on a 3 ph circuit, if there is really a problem any electrician is going to put a known accurate meter...

    MEP803A 208V Wiring

    Hi guys, Thanks to all who replied. Clear as day now. I never even looked behind the main panel. Even without my glasses I could see that.. So what is the honest purpose of that switch on the face of the panel just so you can try and balance loads on the different legs?

    MEP803A 208V Wiring

    Hi Guys, I recently purchased a nice 803A with 8 hours on it. A new set of batteries and some fuel and it fired right up like new. Seems to operate as intended. Still in process of installation and it has not seen a load yet. I am using primarily for backup power on the 240/120V 1ph setting but...

    Warner Robbins Prep for shipping

    Hi group, I have 2 crates of loose parts at WRAFB that I need prepped/consolidated for a freight company to pickup. The one crate has 3 large heavy housings, the other crate a bunch of small light parts that could be transferred into the other crate. Looks like plenty of room. Not sure the base...
