Just bought a dead sexy set of wheels/tyres off ebay, only problem is they're in Bournemouth and i'm in Yorkshire.
Does anyone on here do any travelling, that might possibly collect them for me? obviously i dont expect this doing for nowt.
alternatively anyone know of a reliable and safe way, to get them delivered to Yorkshire?
TIA

I bought some wheels/tyres on ebay a while ago, the seller was in Scotland, and I had them sent by the Royal Mail. They were sent in pairs, shirk wrapped with a label with my address on each one. They got here fine, and all I had to do was sign for them.

IIRC it cost about 30 quid in total.

I'll be down in Southend-on-Sea tomorrow. I know it's a fair way off Bournemouth but you never know your luck. Maybe someones travelling from Bournemouth to Southend-on-Sea........

Man, you guys have it so lucky!

If I bought something from a fellow countryman that was across the country, it would take 3 days of solid driving to go pick it up then another 3 to get back!

Man, I need to move.
