couriers... give me the lowdown please

[thisisyesterday]

argh, finally sold my teutonia double on ebay last week
said they could arrange courier if they wanted

buyer has faffed around and now come back saying that he can't book a courier as the person it is collected from needs to print something off, and that if i can't arrange the courier myself can we cancel the sale

well... i have had a few other buggies i've sold picked up and the courier places have always just stuck a label on when they got to me.... i don't get it!

can anyone recommend a courier company that my buyer can book through that doesn't cost the earth and i don't have to print anything off?

If your buyer uses www.p4d.co.uk there is no need for labels to be printed out. All you as the seller would need to do would be to put their address on the box.

thanks, have had a quick look and it's a bit expensive.

i did warn them that it was HUGE and very heavy.

You can also use www.senditnow.co.uk as they only ask for weight. You have an option to print the labels off or get the driver to hav them on collection.

parcelforce give the option to either print off the labels or the driver has them. I opted to print them off and the driver turned up with them anyway
