Hi
I have 2 parcels to be posted within the UK, sold on ebay.
What services offer a timed slot, so i dont have to wait around all day for collection?

I'm not sure any do. The most accurate you normally get is AM or PM.0

You can select it but its definitely not guaranteedImportant: This is a preferred collection time only.
We cannot guarantee when the driver will arrive.0 -
HDNL do via Parcel2go. Think you pay an extra 2 quid for one of the 4 time slots.0

I bought something off ebay recently and was emailed and told the day of delivery, then on the morning I could go online and be told the 1 hour delivery slot. Of course I can't remember the name of the courier firm, but clearly they do exist.
The ebay seller - who were brilliant by the way! - is jacksean04
Thats DPD, its a new service they brought in.

I don't know any website which resells their services, I think you have to have an account direct.Young moneysaver in the making
