    I've used parcel2go.com but it depends on the dimentions of your parcel. I found them pretty reasonable.

    Yes your right, it is the wrong place but never mind we get used to it now. Grabbit means doesn't mean a quick bargain, its for requests and wanted section/ and for people who know the rules but don't care because they are lazy or impatience or both

    EDIT still its got moved now :)

    I used this e-bay site and can really recommend them. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160187189406
    I sent 2 parcels in December and they were picked up on time and delivered safely. This was also recommended on MSE which was how I found out about it. I would definately use them again.

    HTH

    HTH

    had a quick look at the link to the delivery person on ebay and he is hiding his feedback (when i see that i am always a bit weary) and he has 32 negative feedback and 33 neutral in the last 12 months,

    thanks for the site anyway
  • As well as Parcel2go try Interparcel or Fastlane, they can end up cheaper than using the courier companies direct.
    Also, Staples have a fixed price service by DHL (priced by the dhl box size used)
