Cheap Parcel Delivery Thread Mk4

  • the point i have just made to them is that if a re-delivery results in me being charged again for the delivery then the buyer should not be given the option without my approval.

    You get three delivery attempts with Saletrack just like most DHL re-sellers, this regardless of how the re-delivery is arranged.

    Could it be possible they requested re-delivery on a saturday?

    Hi - thanks, yes I can find lot's of couriers that can help - but I need an am (i.e. 8am to midday) pickup, and in order to find out whether they do (or don't which has been my experience up to now....) I have to go through registration, entering details, etc.... Thanks.
