I'm bidding on a kayak on Ebay but the guy want's cash on collection.
I've had a "cheap" quote for delivery of £95+VAT :o so that's out.
So, firstly I'm looking for someone to pick up and store the kayak if I get the cash to you, until I can plan a trip down - or meet somewhere up country if anyone is heading north in the next new weeks/months. No rush.
It's 2m long and would fit in an estate with ease - but wont fit through the cut out in the back of a saloon.
I appreciate this narrows my potential helpers but if there is anyone out there please let me know. Bidding ends tomorrow at lunch time.
PS This is it http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=140257010898&Category=36122

bob.dent and a few others are going that way after newent, though may be too late.
I can't even get involved in a 'oof relay' as only got saloon.

Will have a word with HNO3GOH --- both got saloons -- but his mum has an estate I am sure we could "borrow". It can live in the garage until we can pass it on

Oh Pete :-[- you don't row kayak's! ;D
Thanks guys, I'll see how the auction goes and as long I know someone can get it home I'll buy it. 600 mile journey to collect it though so it'll have to be cheap :y

IIRC Pete you use a courier quite often - cheapest offer I've had so far is £67+vat via Parcelbrokers.co.uk on next day delivery. I can wait longer - any suggeted sites?
