OR

Could you tell me if there is insurance included, even though it seems really cheap, I'd hate for it to get lost or damaged as for new Grandchild. Thanks.

Thanks for the info and have placed order with above company and awaiting reply, I dread to think what it would have cost with the post office!

Anyone used an ebay courier service? Are they real or a scam to steal your parcel?

I have used ANDIEZDEALZ, Payperdrop & ebay-delivered, and the parcels all arrived ok. They use Parcel Force and DHL. I know that many other MSE Members have used courier services through ebay without problems.

I have a few suitcases full of stuff that I want to move house with, but as I'm getting the train I think this could be the best option...

I used andiezdeals, and the parcel arrived safely and when they said it would arrive. I am extremely pleased with this courier service and will be using again, Thanks to the above people who recommended it.
