I am big fan of DPD.
When I had to RMA a motherboard I rang them up and as I went out the door 15mins later they showed up. Deliveries always on time and always pick up promptly.

Although they aren't the cheapest, but I only use them.

parecl2go has always been the cheapest for me. Good CS aswell. Claims were processed in one working day!

What are you trying to send? You can't get much cheaper than £10 for a next day courier!

You can try parcelmonkey

EDIT:http://www.parcelmonkey.co.uk/

This. Parcel2go has always delivered the cheapest price unless I had some oversized item to send in which case I use the pallet netwrok to send it for £58

Wow, I sent a 700D for £11.99 a couple of weeks ago!

Cannot find the shipping sizes though.

Parcel2go is quoting £20 +vat for a 3 day delivery.
It's not the weight that's the problem it's the size of the thing, it's huuuge.
Can't you get it any smaller?

BringTheRain · 6 Jun 2011 at 19:56

Well the box is 80cm High x 40cm wide x 80cm long. 25KG

I am getting quotes via parcel monkey for like £11 ish plus VAT. More than happy with that!

Would just like someone to check it

As its over HALF of everyone else :eek:

Well not really lol, it is an 800D

chipperhead · 6 Jun 2011 at 20:03

Oh an 800D
*heads off to google*

If I'm looking the correct item its specs are 609mm x 229mm x 609mm
If you can squeeze this in a 75 x 30 x 75 box, maybe by loosing some packaging it's coming in at £8.99 +vat.

Or even £5.95 +vat for 2 days.

BringTheRain · 6 Jun 2011 at 20:06

I had two sent and two arrived damaged. So there is no way I am risking it. Plus it is ready Togo. The packing is epic lol
