Can anybody recomend a courier to pick a bike up, may not be boxed.[possible ebay purchase] Thanks.

When I was in thei situation once I got the seller to take the bike to his LBS, who I had previously phoned and arranged a £20 or £25 fee (can't remeber) for them to box it up and hold onto it until my courier collected.

Worked really well and saved me a 150 mile round trip.

I usually use Interparcel, who re-sell courier services from companies like UPS, DHL etc pretty cheaply.

That's agood idea, shall contact the seller. Thanks.
