Online Vehicle Exchange Selects uShip for Auto Shipping Services

Provides Single-Stop Shipping Choices for Dealers Saving Time and Money

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 12 -- Online Vehicle Exchange (OVE), the online wholesale vehicle marketplace, has chosen uShip, Inc. (http://www.uship.com/ ) as one of three auto transport options for its customers. With thousands of vehicles traded each week between dealers nationwide, OVE identified its customers' need to quickly access cost efficient and reliable shipping services and selected uShip to deliver. Transportation services have been identified by dealers as a service that would make buying wholesale vehicles online even more convenient.

This online marketplace enables buyers and sellers to conduct business 24 hours a day, seven days a week and for sellers to remarket their vehicles earlier in the cycle than in the traditional, physical auction lanes. Buyers are able to see, compare and purchase vehicles either in a "Buy Now" or online, dynamic auction environment.

"We are thrilled to be working with such a respected and long-time leader in the automotive industry," stated uShip CEO Matthew Chasen. "As more dealers are buying wholesale vehicles online, the demand for reliable and cost efficient shipping services has increased. uShip, with its reverse auction bidding process and feedback-rated service providers, is the ideal venue for anyone needing to ship something large and specialized like a car."

Similarly, uShip is an online marketplace where over 30,0000 feedback- rated service providers bid in a reverse-auction format on shipments in a variety of categories, including not only automobiles but also furniture, freight, equipment and other household goods. By providing a single stop to find multiple auto transportation service providers, uShip will reduce search time and shipping costs for OVE customers. uShip's feedback system will provide their customers with more information, and thus peace of mind, when selecting a carrier.
