Just won a complete on the bay and need it picking up and delivering to me.
Never done this before so how do i go about it?
Anyone recommend any good couriers?
And what will i pay roughly its got to come from Essex to Dorset :daumenhoch:
-
courier will cost you about 78 quid for that distance mate :shocked: :'( :2funny: :LolLolLolLol: only joking :daumenhoch:
p4d.co.uk
will cost you £9 all in collected and delivered but only insured up to £50
pay extra for additional insurance cover but if its for that ammaco-goose-skyway from essex you wont need insurance as the bike will never turn up anyway :2funny: sorry mate can't help myself
or i could pick it up for you and send you the frame once done :LolLolLolLol:
with insurance to its value i think about £16
well done and dib dobs on the green tuf neck stem if your selling it :daumenhoch:
you can also pay by paypal with p4d mate :daumenhoch:

On a side note DHL domestic are now called YODEL !!!!!
-
Second side note : the small company's like P4D (which i use and recommend) are having slight issues and some probs with DHL being changed to YODEL - new owners ! the couriers they are using are some times not from the uk and don't put so much care into finding the house or how they treat the parcel - if you find they haven't turned up by a certain time give the courier company a call - stand there and watch the courier and make sure he know you are watching how he treats it
it is sad when good things change - i used to know the driver well and he treated every parcel like it was eggs - now you have different drivers that don't speak to you and just don't care - it's not a racist thing, it is a good work ethics thang
just a word of warning while things are changing with new owners YODAL - the bookers are still great (P4D) but are having to deal with the new style of the company
cheers B
