Can someone pick up my shtuff?

[frostyflax17]

hey guys, i am going to be buying some stuff off ebay over there, window regulator, bumpers, guage cluster, and some random odds n ends


the guy i'm buying the bumper off of possibly won't ship it over to me... so i was wondering if someone could pick up the bumper and ship it over to me?

i am trying to get a crate going to the US, i know some other guys here trying to get parts to us, it seems to be a never ending battle

i'm buying madwolfs guage cluster, not sure if he could just ship the cluster to the person handling the crate?


is there a REALLY cool guy over there willing to handle this? i know it's a bit of a headache but us americans are so unlucky to have gotten such ugly bumpers! haha

or we could work with the "container to the U.S"... possibly. though that'd take more time seeing it's soo big and would take awhile to fill up.

Picked up from where? or do you just mean shipping address?

yeah, you got to remember Britain isn't a town

If the seller is willing to at least wrap the bumper for you (and print a few shipping labels), you can try www.interparcel.com or www.parcel2go.com
They both resell courier delivery slots so as long as their payment system will take your credit card you could book it yourself. Just a thought. good luck

Parcel2go and interparcel dont take bumpers any more to the US which is why sellers refuse to ship

A lot of couriers have stopped this for some reason

[Nj]

really? have they limited the parcel dimensions or is it specifically bumpers?

[frostyflax17]

oh woops, thought i posted that here.

the bumper is near NUNEATON, the postal code for checking is CV10 9PF... what ever that means? haha

it'd be nice if someone nearby there could pick it up and hold it till us americans can get a crate together for sending something over.



who ships crates from britain to the U.S? i thought i read somewhere that it was like 150$ or something like that.

[frostyflax17]

ok guys, not sure what the exact address is yet, but according to the listing it is all located in COVENTRY, United Kingdom.

there's a complete cabriolet bumper and all the pieces to it and the lower door molding to be picked up.

who can store it for a little until we get the container? i don't mind if you use it either as long as you don't break it and you promise to give it back! lol

Scott of Advanced Automotion sometimes brings stuff from there to here.... give him a shout.

[frostyflax17]

ok thanks, is he on this forum or ours? or should i just google advanced automotion and call em up?

[rs2coupe]

Don't believe Scott is organising containers any longer. The UK container has left months ago and is sitting in Texas. The German container has yet to leave and he is not taking any more parts ;(

[frostyflax17]

i sent them an email i think... no repsonse as of today, then again it is the weekend. haha

[frostyflax17]

403 Tunnel Road
Ansley Village
CV10 9PF

that's the pickup address. the guys email is sales@fixmyplasma.co.uk.

you gotta verify with me that you'll pick it up and i'll let him know who's coming to get it.


so anyone close by mind picking it up and storing it till the container to the U,S is arranged? or if you know someway to get it to me a lil bit cheaper.

please?

[frostyflax17]

hey guys, new plan, pick up from either the prior address, or nuneaton, and drive it to leeds where scotty has a shipment coming over to the U.S.

i looked it up and it's about a 2 hour drive... i'll reimburse you for your time.

anyone?
