Hi Dave,

Does this service extend to Ireland at all?  I am looking at bringing across a set of leather seats from the UK and because of the size, I am getting very expensive quotes as you can imagine.  I would be willing to wait a few weeks for delivery as I would be in no hurry.

Thanks,
Richard

I would be collecting from Dave Marshall who is based around Swindon/Cirencester according to his profile.  Would be looking to deliver to County Tipperary in Southern Ireland but would be willing to drive a few hours myself to collect if need be.

I am taking advantage of this service. I got a turning lathe way down on the south coast, and contacted Dave re getting this shipped up. I also sourced a nice metal table to put it on at Milton Keynes. The courier has picked up the lathe already and should be delivering both on Friday for £70. Thats not bad, it would cost me at least that in petrol if I went to pick it up, plus at least 8hrs driving.

It has been good so far, lots of phone calls to keep me informed, however one problem arose. The chap organising it is called Dave, the courier is called Dave, and the chap selling the lathe is also called .......... Dave. So the phone goes and the chap says " Hi its Dave here" . But which one  :-X ;D ;D ;D ;D

This looks as if it could be handy for shipping bits around, a lot cheaper than other couriers.

Well, I got home on Friday to find the lathe and table delivered nice and safely. No damage, nothing missing, and I didn't have to do anything. The driver was helpful in sorting out a time to deliver, he reorganised his day a bit to shift my delivery to the end of his deliveries.

Pretty good service and a good price  :y :y :y

No worries Dave.  I think it would be too expensive for me anyway no matter what!
