    Hi,

    Firstly thanks to anyone who replies/can help.

    I'm looking for a courier company to collect a package from Denver, Colorado USA to be delivered to the UK (London).

    Its a dress, in a box no bigger then 56x46x12 cm. Weighing 1kg.

    Any ideas or suggestions? I tried interparcel and got a quote for £114+VAT which seemed a tad excessive.

    Thanks
    £114!!! You would be better off getting a quote from USPS (United States Postal Service) who will pass on to Parcelforce in the UK. Don't forget about possible import charges.

  • Hi I'm new to this thread and apologise if this has been answered earlier, but I'm looking to post an item which I am selling on Ebay (sewing machine). It weighs 7.5 KG and will stay in the UK.

    Can someone tell me the best way to post this for a reasonable price. The guide suggests myhermes would be cheapest, but it seems to be getting mixed reviews.

    Please can someone give me some advice.

    Thanks very much
