joe_bass Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I recently shipped a bass to a BC'er in France using DPD through http://www.transglobalexpress.co.uk/ Prices are much better through them, you just need to open an account (doesn't cost anything.) As for DPD they were great, bass was insured for £1000 (no exclusions for instruments), they picked it up when they said they would and it was easily tracked online, only took 2 working days and most importantly it arrived still in one piece!

discreet Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Used these people recently with good results. They have accounts with many carriers and negotiate big discounts.

Hutton Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Lest the 'for sale basses' forum gets clogged with other issues perhaps this could be moved to 'general bass discussion'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkpegasus4001 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 i work for UPS so i'm bound to say them! considering the way Derek's bass was packed and sent from Germany (in another thread) I say thumbs up for UPS in getting it to him in one piece! Mind you they are not cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike257 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I've recently used UPS via Interparcel to ship a bass to Cardiff, so that's almost international No hassle at all, rang ahead when they were nearby, collected and delivered on time, great service.
