Members,

Is there anybody who frequents this site planning on returning to the Bamford Auction Rooms for any reason in the next few days, maybe to settle up/collect won lots etc? If so, I have one lot to collect (made up of 4 tins) that they aren't keen on sending to me. Courier to Weston-s-Mare is looking pricey. If a trusted member could collect from the auction rooms, and I'll pay for the P&P to get it to me (economy).

Can anyone help me out?

Mark 'n' Dave Cook.

Hey Cook jnr,
don't use mailboxes, they are way too expensive. They usually carry a handling fee, which is fair enough. But In my experience it ends up costing you about £25- £30 on top.
Ask Bamfords to pack it - they read & use this forum for oodles of free promotion & surely there is some good will extended to forum member's???? hint hint.
Come on, as a group we probably single handedly drove all 3 of their last advertising auctions.
www.interparcel.com is brilliant, they pick up from your house & you are able to chose which carrier you want to use ( usually the cheapest) Fedex & dhl really are good. Sold through interparcel they are the best rates you can get. In over 500 transactions, I have had no problems & always been impressed.

ps always ask me, if i'm there or near abouts I will pick up & help out if I can

If Bamfords can wrap them up then you could use an Interparcel courier to pick up from there providing you e-mail the labels to them and agree a pick up date. I wouldn't trust Mailboxes at all as they manged to lose a rare Rowntrees sign I bid on at Chippenham last year. Blotted copy book etc.
