markm Posted April 21, 2023 Report Share Posted April 21, 2023 I’ve bought a small item on eBay that’s collection only. I need it picked up from the seller and then delivered to me. The item is in Cheltenham and I’m in Newcastle, so it’s a long drive if I have to do it myself. Who have you used in the past? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted April 21, 2023 Report Share Posted April 21, 2023 Much the same as you, appealed on here or Friends and Relatives. I have a colleague at work who will drive miles to avoid paying the postage on some items. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used https://www.shiply.com/ to do similar a few times in the past, it's a site were you list what you'd like collecting and local couriers 'bid' for your business, the quotes come in pretty fast so you can have collection all sorted in a matter of hours Edited April 24, 2023 by Deker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
