Courier -HELP!!

OK guys, thinking of buying a bike from ebay that is brand new however it is located in north yorkshire and i am from Frome so i am looking for a courier from DL7 8AD - BA11 4LF
if anybody knows a cheap courier company or a way to ship the bike please help as the auction ends today, once again thanks for you're help.

P.s. im not lazy i have been looking at quotes but get quoted 180£ as the minimum and i see that shops charge £70 for delivery of bikes so there must be a cheaper alterntive to where im looking.

Length - 170cm
Width - 70cm
Height - 117cm
Weight - 74kg Once again thanks!

Try shiply ?


Only thing i can think of really, and £70 sound's about right, Yorkshire is a long distance!


Just did the AA route planner jobby, and that's a bloody hell of a long way! £70 would probably only just cover the fuel for a van!!

Alternatively you could rent a Van for around £40-£60 and drive yourself?


but for the £20 saving, i'd rather let the seller do it for me, least then its in there hands, i just gotta sit patiently
