Shipping monitors

Is it just me or is this the impossible?
If you wanted to ship a monitor, how would you go about it?
No courier seems to have insurance for monitors. Is it just basically all a gamble?

Has anyone used DHL service points? http://www.dhlservicepoint.co.uk/sizeprice.htm

I had to ship one I sold the other day and had the same problem. Just gotta gamble I guess or pay a premium.

It's such a pain :/

which company did you use ACEOWNER?

NextDay2Go. Was 9 quid I think for next day, if you book before 11am they pickup same day. It all went smoothly.

Well I thought DPD only did business customers but it seems the link you to Interlink and they are good for monitors up to 26".

I might wait for a don to get back to me about listing on MM first before using the dreaded auction site.
