Courier versus Royal Mail.......

3.5 kg package (pine mountain frame).......bubble wrapped and sealed in cardboard.......100x50x15cm.......Atherstone in warks to Huddersfield.......private courier or Royal Mail?.......


Just had a quote from a private courier of £114....... Seems a bit steep, but am I not in the real world here?...... :?
 
:facepalm: ......Ha!.....sorry!......just read that properly but failed to edit before I was humiliated!..... :LOL: :LOL:
 
That's much more like it!.......how do these people earn a living with so much variation in prices?........

just in case you missed it.

This, every time.
Parcel monkey?
The clue is in the name!
A frame within UK will be £13 via parcelforce 48, £16 next day.
You will find cheaper with other couriers, but the difference will be pennies and you'll be waiting in all day...
Abroad is a different matter!
 
Paisley Freight £21 bike in a box to mainland Uk.
My Hermes about £10 for a frame alone.
In my experience both provide reliable service.
