Cheap Parcel Delivery Official Discussion

556+623

Hello everyone, I'm a newbie here! As is long thead here. I hope you all don't mind I just put my question here. Thank you!

I would like to start my business in eBay. Can anyone in here advice me that which courier is the best sending out the small parcel to oversea? The max weight will be 2kg of the item but mostly will be around 500g and as long as the parcel can be reach the customer within 2 week is ok. Is it I should stick with Royal Mail?

Please advice. Thank you

Anything under 2kg the cheapest option is royal mail. Just to say no royal mail service guarantees tracking once the item leaves the UK. You can claim for loss up to £46 so any items that cost more than that you will need a courier to be insured.

Royal Mail is the way to go under 2kg for sure, over you will just have to shop around as each company is better at some countrys than others.
The best i have seen is www.thepackagedeliverycompany.com
but i have not used them yet i might try something on Monday, and i will let you how it goes.
