Not really, why not just ask on the forum when the service is required and wait for someone to reply. Pretty straight forward.

Noel, yes... you are probably right... but always good to have options I guess... and yes... its just a case of asking on here... Thank you for all of your input and suggestions... and thank you to those who have offered to be shipping buddies...  :biggrin:
Happy shopping!!  :good2:

To OP, if you do a Google search you will find there are businesses that do post forwarding from the states. Even our Australia Post has such a service.

.....I use a forwarding house in the US, so I have a US mailing address, they are very common.

Krusty, this is what I was referring to.

Australia Post's attempt to get in on the act however was typically "public service" and a cock up from start to finish. Take a business model fine honed to perfection by private enterprise and apply public service management to it.......

Thanks all... yes... I have been looking around for a courier service as I have purchased one in the UK... but Im still trusting a stranger to tell me what size the package is and the weight.

Anyone in the UK who is willing to help out as a shipping buddy?

Cheers

What is it you've bought, and where in UK is it?
Unfortunately I am no longer young enough to know everything...

Hi all...
Sorry... I should have closed this conversation off here... I did on the "parts wanted" thread... my bad...  :flag_of_truce:
All ended up well... I bought the upper fairing from the UK via eBay and the seller was AMAZING!!!! He helped me out and did lots of legwork for me so for that I was very grateful...
Ended up 140 pounds including shipping to my door. Gotta be happy with that!!  :good2:
Cheers
