Thunderbird Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) Upon checking, many couriers (including Parcel Farce) don't cover computer screens or all-in-one computers like iMacs. In fact the list of goods either 'prohibited' or not insured makes very interesting reading. Yodel cite 'filth' as something they refuse to carry! So, does anyone know of one who will (carry - with cover - an iMac, not carry filth)? Please no suggestions like 'try UPS'....I'm asking if you know of one that does definitely cover both damage and loss to an iMac or screen. Seems most don't. Ta!

Thunderbird Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 Yeah, but all the big distributors will have deals done with the major firms. Apple use UPS for example. Like I said, those 'prohibited / restricted items' lists make interesting reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well now he is at college he can buy at educational discount so you have to buy V11. They would not let him have a copy at educational prices whilst in secondary school so he purchased a mac G5 with it already installed and an iLoc.

Thunderbird Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 After a conversation with Freakmode this won't suit his son due to the screen size, so I'm going to put it up for sale very shortly in case anyone's interested.
