There is no such thing as the best courier, only the least worst!

I've just used UPS to send my grandsons Christmas present to New Zealand arrived on time in good condition so I would reccomend but they do have poor reviews on their website

Not sure if that helps?

Would have always said Fedex, but they have just managed to lose a Johnson Ross package for me so they are added to the sh*t list too.

DPD seem pretty good based on my few dealings with them.

I'd go with fed ex, only had one problem and that was resolved quickly and without hassle.

Never had a problem with DHL but they're not the cheapest.

I'm currently waiting on a ‘spares or repair' donor boat coming through the post. I arranged the pickup from the seller which happened today. Being a ‘donor' boat it was insured for £100 which kept the cost to £25 pick up door to door. The seller works in retail so it's well packaged.

Should've here tomorrow earliest, Thursday latest.

To be fair at the moment they are all as bad as each other i have posted rods with ups since jan they have just gone up from £24 - £31 they went up this time last year from £20 -£24. Absolutely no point in insuring rods , you dont get paid out .Have lost rods with 3 different companies now none of which i got paid out for !

Well my boat arrived today in perfect condition. So it was picked up on the 1st from the seller and delivered to me exactly 24 hours later 👍

Can't fault that. Never had a problem with DHL 👍
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
