Hey guys. Need some help. I have sold a fruit machine and need a courier to deliver it. I dont usually deliver myself so need some help finding a courier. I have tried gaming direct as spa said he usually uses them.. but I cant get through to them.
So if anyone else can recomend one.. that isnt a complete delivery newbie.. got quoted £250 as it was an "all day job" by an ebay courier. lmao.
ps thanks for the birthday messages :)

What about Shiply ? I've never personally tried them my self but you simply list up your job and couriers will bid and compete for the job. It's like a market place and I think most couriers can do the job cheap as they're traveling that way anyway.

 

Just a quick note to let you know some great news - Shiply is now totally free to use, with no Auction Service Fee or PayPal/Credit Card fees.

In case you have forgotten since you last used us, Shiply is the online marketplace for moving goods.  You simply tell us what you need to move and our huge network of transport companies compete for your job.

With over 70,000 transport companies registered across Europe, the cheapest delivery prices are on Shiply.

I tried gaming direct and same thing happened the number just rung endlessly, the only way i got an answer was to email a guy called Kevin,  kevin@gaming-direct.co.uk.

In the end i used silversprint, they were pretty good, they are cheaper but that does mean you have to wait a while longer. I also tried shiply, its quite cool how you wait for people to make offers, however the prices for me were not pretty ranging from £133 to something stupid like £390 quid!

Gaming direct details are kevin@gaming-direct.co.uk - They do a lot of work for the big manufactures & distributors. I have had no probs with them it's about a two week turn around for delivery & collection because they have set runs for MOST of the country.
