New adition to collection
« on: February 07, 2016, 01:59:40 pm »
I won this yesterday



Never seen one before, junior compact  £25 got that look from Mrs Madrat  :underchair:.  Its in Buckley at the moment, just need to arrange the courier with the seller, don't suppose anyone lives in Buckley and fancies pick up and post?

Yes I get "That look" when I buy a new Radio or car, not so much Vacuum's because I usually make money selling them on lol.

That one looks old dude!

Plenty of bubblewrap, a nice thick box and next day delivery. Please no crisp boxes!

Never, never, never use yodel! A bunch of lying crooks. They lost me close to £600 and am now taking them to court.

APC are pretty good. Reliable for collecting and for me, their local depot is 4 miles away and they will let me drop off. Delivery is nearly always next working day.

DPD are ok too. I like the way you can track the driver on his round. Usually my slot is 4.30 to 5.30. Glyn is on his way home then.

I sent a car to Jersey with APC and it was collected at 11:30 and it was on the buyers doorstep at 07:00 the next day. Cost £81 mind you but the service is top notch!  :thumbsup:
