Posting a supersprint race centre section - Saxperience

VTR_Craig · 16th June 2008, 23:01

A member is having difficulty sending me a centre section via courier.

The problem is that the pipe is about 2.2metres long and that is too long for every courier he has tried.

the limit is around 1.5 metres

I dont fancy him cutting it and me recieving it in two halves to weld up.

any advice/help or experiences with couriers would be great.

reps available

Cheers

I imagine there will be private couriers ie people with vans who'll deliver it at the right price, surely..?

VTR_Craig · 16th June 2008, 23:09

Glad i could help... just gotta hope he replies now lol.

VTR_Craig · 16th June 2008, 23:35

neh no worries dude.

I paid for this ages ago and the guy has been trying to send it since

I haven't seen one of these for ages and really want it,its just really annoying that it can't be posted

Also the day after i paid for it someone on here offered one for half the price as he was feeling generous and i turned it down lol
