Signs You Picked the Wrong Moving Company... Great price? Check. Friendly? Check. Careful with the China? Check. Asked for your new address? Uh, oh. Most of your belongings arrive successfully in Los Angeles. Your collection of private home videos made with the wife shows up several weeks later -- on the internet. Mime Movers is a great concept, but those invisible boxes don't seem to work very well. The first load they took was your entertainment center, home computer, and jewelry. That was two weeks ago. While emove.com's stock might have doubled in value since it went public, mentioning a moving van causes some confusion. The phone number on their business card connects you to the Crime Stoppers hotline. They don't use peanuts to pack your fine crystal -- they use peanut butter. They assure you that your stuff will get from NY to LA before you do -- assuming there's not much traffic in the Panama Canal. They offer a "Bordello rate" if you allow them to make use of your bed during transport. Attention to detail is a good thing, but the guys at Anal Retentive Moving Co. insist on un-packing, inspecting and then re-packing every box. "Starving Students" were booked solid, and "Thirsty Fratboys" didn't seem like such a bad idea at the time. Bus Fare from Sing Sing Prison: $5.75 Used moving van: $500 Watching a dot.com millionaire smile as you to cart off all his valuables: priceless. Reassembling your king-sized bed resulted in lopsided twin beds and a chin-up bar.
