there must be cheaper alternatives. I bought a frame off Hilary Stone a year or so ago and he charged £11

Just looked up http://www.parcel2go.com/ who I used to use in a different life, and they quoted (I guessed weight/size as 15kg, 150x60x20cm) £22

I got a bike delivered through parcel force. Was about £35-45 with up to £500 compensation

Shiply.com is deffo worth a try. Men with vans who were going that way anyway bid on your job. You get an email offering say £60 then more and more till nobody wants to undercut the last guy. Like ebay in reverse.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
