Default Posting Parts

Before i start a For Sale thread, whats the best/cheapest way of posting parts out to people? Used the Post Office in the past and they seem quite expensive !!!

Thanks in Advance

I use Collect Plus:

http://www.collectplus.co.uk/

Our local news agent deals with them. All parcels are fully tracked and in my experience get there very quickly too. Any they're much cheaper than Royal Mail.

If it's larger items you are sending out then https://www.paisleyfreight.com are excellent.

As above www.interparcel.com used them many many many times and only ever one problem (which they solved).

Also make sure you send the parts insured, so if the worst does happen neither of you is out of pocket.

My mate used these to send an engine, and lets just say it was a comedy of errors, and I wouldn't recommend them to send a cold.

you could always get a list together and send it to your mates in fleetwood who could buy it all as a job lot to save you trouble of wrapping and sending
