Sparky Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Hi all, Got someone interested in my Shocks but he lives in Ireland. Anyone know of a courier capable of getting the shocks to Ireland without costing hundreds? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev.O Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I have the same problem. I have two parcels which weigh less than 5 kgs but one is almost a meter long as I want to properly protect the rad cover. Interparcel want over £30. Can anyone recommend anyone else? It's to Cork City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Southern Ireland is horrendously expensive to send packages to from mainland UK. I always have to apologise when i quote to there, all the big players charge a fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraGirlie Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I sent something which is just under a metre long and over 2000g in weight to southern Ireland and it was very pricey to go with my courier, they told me the Royal Mail would be cheapest so I took it there and it was.

Gaz Walker Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 They just quoted me £70.50 Thats because you don't have an account I'm saying in general. Try and see if theres a local courier in your area (independant) that uses them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
