    thing is paypal wont cover you with seller protection unless they use DHL, Parcelforce, UPS, Fedex or Royal Mail.

    Hi.

    I think, Greeny, you'll find that as long as it's trackable online, any courier service is fine. The last link on the dropdown menu on the paypal page for sending buyers tracking info is for 'Other Courier'.

    Exclamation and question marks - ONE exclamation mark or question mark is sufficient to exclaim or ask about something. More than one just makes you look/sound like a prat.
    Should OF, would OF
    . Dear oh dear. You really should have, or should've listened at school when that nice English teacher was explaining how words get abbreviated.

    I think baffy :D you'll find that although you can provide tracking data for 'other' couriers its no good when it comes to paypal seller protection, as soolin has so kindly proved in the post above
  • I do hope you got your parcel delivery sorted - I would avoid Parcelforce like the plague - they are dreadful I would rather use a new company than Parcelforce - they provided me with terrible service so bad I cancelled my contract with them and am looking for a reliable and customer service driven company if there is one such company out there!
