Default Thinking of breaking

Good afternoon all,

I am purchasing a new scoob for some switching of parts and am thinking of breaking up an RA (97)

How do I go about advertising it on here, and how much would it cost me to do so?

Also I have noticed in the breaking section people include delivery service... any ideas who to use?

Thanks in advance!

THIS IS NOT AN ADVERT!! ***** (I understand the rules!)

Hi,

Its Free for you to advertise in the Market Place (SN Members Only) - https://www.scoobynet.com/market-pla...bers-only-436/

Highly recommend http://www.parcel2go.com/ used them for years and way cheaper than post office plus they come to you.

All the best,

Jeff

no mate, but they do advise of what u need to use to wrap. and because they know what the items are exactly they cant argue with em lol. i had trouble before using normal compaines and with them you dont need exact weights etc.

I would advise you to read up the reviews on parcel2go before using them. A member on here sent me something through them a few weeks ago, still not got it. Then I read the reviews.... Yes I'm sure a few people do have a good experience with them but I'm pretty certain the bad outweigh the good.

I think it's just time & space that's the biggest issue, you will probably end up with loads of parts left over aswell, could probably chuck them on eBay but the fee's are ridiculous.

What scoob you getting mate??

ive used parcels2go and they have been great, they act as a broker for the parcel companies so if something hasnt arrived it will be because of that particular company. I normally use P2G and send via DHL for piece of mind, cheaper than going to DHL direct i have found.

Interesting mixed reviews there, I might advertise as 'arrange own collection' or similar,

I have been recommended paisley in the past tho, it has to be said!

RICK - I'm picking up my friends type-ra as he has had to get rid for family reasons. I will be keeping my type-r but transfering over his engine, better breaks and lines, paddle clutch, roll cage etc, then breaking the rest to try get some money back!

My engine will be going too...

It is going to be an interesting bank holiday weekend.. to say the least!
