thanks for that
now i know i am being thick but do i have to register with them first?
how do i find a guesstimate price (without knowing there postcode) of how much the item is going to be when i send it.
just tried looking it up on quotes and it says i am not a valid parcels pick up.
sorry for asking but i need a step by step thing,

Go to the post office, hand it over to the person, they will tell you a price, pay them
simple
Or go to parcel2go.com
Enter the detailes, pay by paypal
Here is a discount code, it gives you 10% off: AUCTRE519736349A0 -
yes thanks.
i want to know the post price before i put it on ebay.
hence the fight through the one hundred old Lady's and gents who seem to think the post office is going to run of with all there money, if they don't barge to the front of the queue telling everyone very loudly how much money they are getting out and how they like to put a bit away every week,(just in case) but i put it in the sideboard behind our Bills pic were know one thinks to look! so thats a no to the post office unless you want to go for me please.
thanks for the other Addy and discount code i will look at it now.At last I have a signature.0 -
thanks that looks like the job i can just see how much stuff is before i put it on line and quote ta muchAt last I have a signature.0

i used parcel2go.com, and it the service was great. They do go a bit overboard on the email notifications everytime your parcel does something, but it was very nice to sit at home and have them pick up your parcel, rather than drag the item to the PO. Cheaper too.We got rid of the kids. The cat was allergic.
