Ben@LeicesterTrials Posted January 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Was a close call lol, Got there and as soon as the women seen it she said it is to big to post. After measuring it it was just about bang on the maximum size that they could post so she let it go ahead with posting, Cost £15 with £500 Insurance witch isn't to bad really. I was expecting it to be like £25.Thanks Anyway .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Clark Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 I used some courier service which I've forgotten the name of that Caleb told me about. £10 and they picked it up from your house, sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
