Quick... auction ends in 4 hours!!

Anyone close to Coalville in Leicestershire who'd pick up an eBay item for me, and package it up so I can have a courier collect it?

Worth a couple of beers of course... the number depending on how far you have to travel!

What is it ?

Was thinking could pick it up after Newark and bring it down to London

It's a sunroof mechanism for an Escort. Mine broke quite spectacularly last week, so I've only been able to go out when it's not raining, as both my other cars are in bits!

Here is is: click me

Claire - any chance you'd collect it for me, package it up, and let DHL collect it from you? It will need some reinforcement on the tails (vertical black bits in the picture) so they don't get bent in the post - taping the whole thing to a thin sheet of wood or plastic would be ideal.

I could do that , but there is a slight problem with DHL collecting it - I am at work during the day . I've had stuff collected while I'm out before , but I can't remember if it was DHL ?

If you're happy to address it to me and leave it outside for them to collect, I'd be happy with that. Hopefully it won't go for much than the current £20 bid, so it won't be the end of the world if it was to go walkies.

I'll drop you a u2u anyway.

Thanks all. I'd made an arrangement with Claire, then got distracted and forgot to bid. DOH!!

Nevermind, hopefully another will come up so I've got transport again!
