Who to post heavy items ?
I tried to sell some things on ebay over the weekend. The only bit I sold was the bit I would post.
Anyway who will take a parcel around 40cm3 and around 33kg
P2go will do upto around 25kg as most others will. And as the item has a lowish value then the postage needs to be good aswell. Also people wanting
the items sent abroad.
cheers

Try & avoid using their parcel menu system .... You often get a cheaper quote if you just enter the dinmensions & weight

Ive used palletline before to move engines and stuff.
Or something I spotted recently on the retrorides forum, they have a members pony express thread, for getting cars and parts moved.

Not used it, but might be worth a whirl.

What is it - uranium? 40cm3 is e.g. 2x4x5 cm, about the size of a matchbox: D

Ive often lied about weight and dims and they still took it.
the courier doesnt have a scooby what he is picking up...just an address and thats it.
as long as you dont push the boat out to far with the truth.......

I may chance it if it was close but over 20% is taking the wee. Ive been there before and ended up giving it away by the time ive paid the extra.
