Take the packed bass to the Post Office. They will weigh it and give you prices for delivery. Simples!

Try Interparcel, they offer good competetive prices, and you end up using DHL/UPS via their service, just at a far better price. There`s a thread on here somewhere about couriers, and Interparcel get favourable comments.


I checked out the price for sending an amp weighing 25kg, insured up to £500, to both France, and mainland UK with them. Costs were approx £40 & £20 respectively.

+1 for Interparcel

-000's for Royal Mail/Parcelforce for their limited insurance and the fact that the counter staff will happily sell you insurance which won't pay out.

NOOO!!! Interparcel are crap to N Ireland. I sent something to TheGroovyPlucker and not only did they not guarantee any delivery date, but they took 3 working days to deliver and charged me/us more than £100 for a non-existent "premium" service... Try TNT or even Parcelfarce - at least they can do next day.
