Ebay Collect and post help... Please

[Gary Prentice]

Hi, I need a favour off of someone in the Telford and Wrekin Council Area. I've bought a set of books from Ebay, which are collection only. Is there anyone willing and able to collect them for me, parcel them up and put them in the post?

 

I haven't any details, as yet, but I think they would need collecting from Derby House, Telford. Obviously I'll pay for the p&P costs and either pay for the members time or make a donation to the Arbtalk charity.

 

I've waited a long time to own this set, so will be very appreciative to anyone who can help me out:biggrin:

Item is at Wellington Library, Telford. I'm sure someone will, arborists are a decent bunch of lads generally, particularly the ones on here who live and work around Telford:biggrin:

I don't see why not. I need to contact the seller tomorrow, which appears to be the councils procurement or finance department. But the books are actually at the library, so should be available for collection during their normal opening hrs .

I'll know more tomorrow.

Apparently it needs collecting during the week..........

 

Any takers?

Try putting an ad on gumtree maybe. If you localize the work to that area. someone job hunting will do it for a fee I reckon. Its a bit in strangers hands but if you posted them a cheque maybe. It is an awkward one I thought an arbtalk member would be up for it.

With the window for collection, 10-1800 hrs, it's probably difficult for most to arrange. If no-ones able to help me out, I'll drive down, it's a couple of hours each way.

If someone had had the to time to do it, I would have happily thrown a good donation towards the charity. I've coveted these volumes for many years:001_rolleyes:

 

My other option is to find a 'man and van' in Telford, ask them to collect and post them. So does anyone know or can recommend anyone down there?
