    Am i being silly in thinking i could find a courier for a Joolz for the standard £10-ish rate??

    Cos i'm have a guess at measurements and weight and it's coming back at £20+

    The black Joolz with all accessories is wanting to do a deal at £185 but i have to sort my own courier. What do you think Tia/Caz/anyone??

    Beenie, when posting out I always used to paypal courier. £11.99 24DHL, max weight 30kg.

    Don't know about collection. Would be far easier for the seller to arrange it via paypal tbh. Maybe explain to her that it is simple, you pay via paypal, she clicks on 'buy postage label' follow instructions, prints off the label (although according to the DHL guy you don't have too so long as you put on a clear address label) and it gets uplifted.

    If she is boxing it up and waiting for a courier, it's just as easy for her to do it. Maybe offer her £15 for delivery when it will only cost her £11.99?

    oh and the paypal courier (which is DHL) take the money from your paypal account, so if you've been paid that way, it's nice and neat.

    For smaller things it's cheaper to look elsewhere, but big things, paypal.

    I'm getting an ear infection :(
