Reforward (remail) envelope FROM UK - Where?
Comments

AdrianC: noone pays me anything but this doesn't mean i couldn't make profit from it. I didn't lie to anyone but yes, as you said, I will honestly say that i don't want them to know I am not from UK.
bazzyb: content of envelope is irrelevant here. If I am able to find service provider for delivery+reship then he/she will provide the service regardless if X or Y content. I may agree, due to security reasons, that he/she opens and checks everything before reshipping to make sure its legal but in this case I don't have any protection on my side. He/she may refuse to reship for any reason or could simply take the content of envelope for himself/herself and never communicate with me anymore. This way its not safe for me. Although the truth is that in reality i could never really ''prevent'' service provider from opening it.
Are you expecting someone of here to offer their services? That's what you seem to be after, and it's very unlikely that it's going to happen. You've been told about a legitimate service that does what you claim to need it to do, but you're still looking for an alternative. Everything about this seems dodgy, and no-one on this forum is going to give you an address that they walk past every day and offer to collect your post from it; not even for a fee. You'll have to find another way to get your envelope from this service provider.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

If Royal Mail is too expensive how much os the 'small' fee you are willing to pay?
What about the cost of sending the envelope onto your address.Forwarding is not free. The sender would have to pay postage to forward it on.0 -
Mailboxes!
There is a cultural difference here between the UK and US. OP does not know the UK and appears to believe that we have the same mailboxes by the front gate that are common in the USA. If that were the case and your daily walk to the station took you past a house you knew to be empty you would indeed be able to sneak a peek inside the mailbox. However I have never seen a single example of a US-type open mailbox anywhere in the UK, so the OP's crafty plan seems to be impossible.
You see them in areas with lots of US expats, for example around Weybridge.There is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker0
