Shovels Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Some chap from the states has won my headlights and is now asking me to send them by airmail - he recons it'll cost only £20! I've had a quote from a delivery company and their quoting the best part of £200! Has anyone got any experience of sending parcels from the UK to the USA?

Tell him you'll send him by any method he chooses. Couriers have a "receipient pays" option It won't be cheap thats for sure, I think with our couriers it would be £90 or so and we have a large account! Regards, Gaz.

Dragonball Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 The headlights wont work in the states I think - as the beam is in wrong direction (RHD etc)?? May be wrong but worth checking? Also postage a PITA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also postage a PITA! I already thought of that and wondered why he'd be ordering a set of LHD lights, TBO it feels like a scam, but that might just be me being paranoid!
