DPD send you an email with a 1 hour time slot on the morning of delivery.
Best delivery service ever...........
Don't know how they compare on cost though

DPD are a great carrier.
They invested heavily in Predict.
Of course ask most sellers and buyers dont want to pay for postage or want the cheapest.

Well, I won't be using DHL again; this note I've sent to an ebay seller describes my day...

Hi.
You've used DHL for this, right?
I'm really not happy with them, at all...
I've received a notification that it will be delivered today, so I've waited in for it to arrive.
And waited.
And waited.
I've gone to the tracking and it says "Scheduled Delivery: Today by End of Day".

Did your package arrive, Prowla?

It did, thanks; just after 7.

Give people your ebay ID now so they can ban you from their buyers list!!!

I can't think of anyone who would actually want a buyer like you.

In only the tiny minority of purchases are you able to specify the actual carrier, often just the method of delivery can be selected.

Most of my online purchases I get delivered to a local shop, I get a text on delivery and pick up the parcel at my convenience.
