    LF: Help/Advice shipping bumpers UK --> Canada

    I'm looking at some beautiful bumpers but the seller is having a tough time arranging shipment to Canada from the UK.

    Seems a bunch of carriers listed in the sticky aren't viable options.

    Can anyone offer a solid solution or some BTDT advice?

    Thanks!

    try 'audibits' on ebay,he sends them on behalf of other people I have been told.I stopped doing it as when they get damaged etc it is painful and the claims process is a never ending process of stress and 'lost' emails etc etc

      I actually asked the seller to contact you for pointers, and heard about your misfortunes with damaged parcels. That's a shame to hear.

      Incidentally, I sent an email to Mike last week asking him the same. He hasn't replied.

      Perhaps I'll try again, only thru eBay vs. email.

      Thanks.

          Difference in flight route frequencies, I'd assume.

          Pay to play.

            I have used these a few times and found prices and service good.

              I asked audi bits mike and had no answer too
              I had a quote of £604 to send one to Russia!)
              Size is problem- maybe should cut theming half and buyers weld them back together at the other side!

                I've sent Mike an internal eBay message, hopefully something comes of it.
