As title which couriers are good to use to. Im looking at buying at a few car parts such as wings and seats and want to know which courier is good to use that will not damaged such fragile things in transport and also are cheap. Im buying p1 wings and side skirts and want to use a good courier that wont damage them. Thanks

 

UPS have always been good for me

 

Been using myHermes quite a bit recently, had a massive shed clearout on ebay to start holiday fund for me and my young lady and so far people from all over the country have paid over £500 for all our junk!

All good feedback on them, shipping bought through Parcel2Go

 

Ah brilliant il have a look into both. Cheers

 

...oh and your best bet is good packaging to start off with...acres of bubble wrap etc

Are they comiing from the same seller? Interesting to see that a pallet on Parcel2Go is only about £60 I imagine stuff on one of those is harder to damage

 

Yes its all from one seller. Thats true. Think il get it on pallet

 

MyHerpes -- no chance - it depends on the ultimate delivery courier, I have had more damaged parcels by them and yodel than any other.

Also look at interparcel alongside parcel2go

 

The power of the internet...polarised opinions to your door in seconds! You choose fella ;-:

 

I second that just had a set of headlights delivered to the buyer and I packed like kids gloves and yet they still got smashed to bits so now trying to get compo from myhermes. Not impressed I didn't realise they handed over to second or third parties. I've just sent two more items one of which has gone to France so will wait and see so in my opinion I would not use myhermes again sorry

 

I've found APC good. Used them recently

YOU ARE ALL WRONG

Paisley freight spencer list I car parts and charge you buy the item not the size or weight ! Well cheap and great service

 

MyHermes took two and a half weeks to deliver my last parcel.
It weighed under 1kg, was the size of a book. Assuming they lost it and then magically found it.

Never again.

 

both are very poor and well known in the industry

Yodel are very close to the edge from what I read

Look how good they are on price and they also do next day ! Never had an issue

 

On commission? Haha

 

No just helping a fellow member out !

 

MyHermes and Yodel are useless I sent 5 BBS split rims in the post, only 4 turned up all missing the BBS centre caps, few phone calls and the 5 randomly turned up at the delivery address then when I stated my dad was a lawyer I got my money back for the price of 4 new BBS centre caps.
That was with Yodel

MyHermes have just always been late and parcels damaged when I've received stuff via them

Paisley Freight have been good and interparcel

 

Checkout ipostparcels.com, very cheap and good service so far.

 

another sob story for yodel here, headlights turned up smashed to bits and a fat *** dent in the corner of the box
parcelforce48 have been decent for me in the past especially for going NI to mainland - but as said above there is no substitute for pleanty of packaging!

 

TNT or ups depending on size/weight and country.

The wings are at your discretion with any courier but helps if packaged well but still no garuntee

 

Could use these

Wouldn't recommend Parcelforce.

£12-odd express air freight from Japan (in 48 hrs), then PF charged £13.50 to pick up from Coventry and deliver to S. Wales - and took nearly 4 weeks to deliver it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

LOL this is gna turn into ww3 lol. Paisly freight sound good.list car part items. Sound like a company dedicated gttin parcels delivered safe

 

All coming from one seller from scotland

 

I used to work for myself making and selling clocks and glass topped furniture so my parcels needed to be treated well. My dad worked for APC and he used to send them by 'secure' service. Slightly more expensive but they were always handled well. I never had a single dmamaged item in 2 years unlike parcel force when I visited a customer to find a glass top box had shoe prints all over it and a mashed corner despite the fragile notices.
DPD offer a good text notification service for the receiver which i have found very handy
