Just spent the last 3 hours packing the next big pile of bike parts to be shipped off. One lesson I’ve learnt from this whole thing is to be a bit more realistic about the postage charges. I’m definitely going to be out of pocket with those charges. You forget how much packaging actually weighs. In a lot of cases it has pushed the weight into the next weight category. Oh well, you live and learn. I’m also spending a lot of time trawling through the different courier services and the post office charges. It’s a bit like mobile phone tariffs, all companies charge differently, well the same goes for couriers. Some go on weight only, some on size and weight, and some are fixed price. So it’s really hard to compare. Anyway, all done, couriers selected for the next set of parcels. eBay and PayPal are certainly going to get their money’s worth from this little lot.
