    Hi Saeed

    Did you put the word 'REBOOKING' in the comments section at the bottom of the booking form?

    I have had several parcels that were not initially collected, but after sending another form and writing 'REBOOKING' on the form the collection was then quite quick.

    Sometimes though after a couple of rebookings the courier turns up and is expecting 3 parcels!!!

    Once collected, all the parcels I have ever sent were delivered the next day.

    Excellent post by OP . I am fairly new to e bay and am sending a couple of china items out in the post:eek: I have used boxes filled with shreded paper and bubble wrapped the items. I got a roll of 300mm x5m for £0.99 from Wilkinsons. Dont know if this is a bargain but both items have been very well wrapped for this. Many thanks again for the list of suppliers.

    The Postal Express Company Seem to have Closed Down :confused:

    They did have a 50% off everything voucher code the other day, so maybe they were stock clearing!

    I will look out for some more samples soon!
