99hjhm Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 I would try interparcel... just Google them. The seller would need to pack them, and maybe stick on a label. They are cheap, I would use there UPS service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gucciwah Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 kool thanks, so they are national and will pick and send from anywhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99hjhm Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 As far as I know yes... Only used them once, this week... Prices are too good to be true! I sent a set of Aston Martin V8 carburettors and manifolds valued at £500, massive box 13KG.. only cost £19 to ship them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99hjhm Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 You need the seller to size them up and weigh them, I got a wheel and tyre off a guy on here, cost £15 to send. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris260 Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Last time i used Interparcel for a set of wheels they cost £40. If you split them up into seperate packages it reduces the cost a lot, either 2 wheels in one box or all 4 in separate boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Senditnow.com - Anything up to 32kg for £12, which means most sets of wheels go as two pairs, and cost £24 next day. I've used them dozens of times - It's through parcelforce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shteee Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Ive always used Paisley Freight to deliver any of my car parts. Ive sent and received quite a few sets of wheels and large car parts and they have always been sent or received in very fast time and in perfect condition. Not only are they pretty cheap but after dealing with them a few times they slightly drops the charges for being a valued customer https://www.paisleyfreight.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDGM Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 I'd help, but I'm in France for another week. We have a depot in Cannock and one just south of Glasgow.Maybe I should sort out some king of CL courier deal. I'll have a word when I get back, we deliver for Honda and Porsche.
