I might have my alloys sold but I need to send them. I'll be using Paisley Freight for the job but the question I ask is how the hell I wrap 4 alloys and tyres into one big parcel or do I send them as seperate items???

Anyone sent some before as I need help

No fees if the person paying uses funds from a bank account or from funds already in their paypal account.

Effective from 9 July 2008, PayPal will change its fee structure to make it more attractive for our UK customers to send personal payments. We are pleased to announce that:

* PayPal will not charge a recipient (regardless of their account type) of a PayPal payment if that payment was funded by the sender's bank account or PayPal balance and it is designated a Personal Payment

* PayPal will apply a fee for payments received for Personal Payments or Commercial Payments if such a payment is funded by a credit or debit card, however for Personal Payments funded by a card, the sender will have the option of paying the fees for that payment"

I use Paisley Freight everytime i send wheels and do the above and have never had any issue's.

Cardboard on the face and wrap them in black bin liners..Dont think they need the weight though,just need to know the size and how many wheels.
