I was going to send a largish parcel to Lanzarote last year and ipost parcels were the cheapest.  :)

However in the end I decided to hand deliver, just to make sure it got there safely!  ;)  :y

Would say UPS, but would strongly recommend crating them first... they managed to snap a spoiler for me tother day :-\

That said, will they fit inside a plastic drain pipe?

That's not a bad quote.

True Sir Tigger, but if it ensures it arrives in one piece, then worth it. Lesson learnt the hard way recently  :-[

Worth it for the ease and security of packing too; cut some pipe, slip in the covers then  screw and glue on some stopends.

Not worth it if it makes the whole exercise too expensive for the buyer.  :P  ;) 

I guess cardboard tube wouldn't be much lighter though to be honest  :-\  and it'll still be cheaper than Tiggers personal courier service!  :D
