strimmer_13 Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 I see a lot of people here send ditchy knifes to refurb and lots get sold in the for sale section, but which company's do you use to post a legal knife? Ive some here which are not worth a lot but will post up if I can find a company. Do I just take a chance with Royal mail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do mail order businesses that sell cutlery via the internet get on sending items? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panoma1 Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Just checked, you can send knives through the post, providing they are securely packaged, so as not to compromise the H&S of post office employees! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strimmer_13 Posted August 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Happy days I'll get posting. I fear the postage is more than the knifes are worth but hey see what happens Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodeer Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Buy your postage online and print it off and stick to the parcel and just drop in to a sorting office or post office. They always give you a glancing look because you’ve bought it online but they then don’t any questions. My local post office is run by a husband and wife who ask you what’s in it and every time they then spend 2 minutes utes talking about if they can send it and think special delivery at £9 would be a better option so I always use the above and just drop it in to save any of that.
