On a mini rant right now with the postal service - ordered new crash bars for the Africa Twin and they were despatched from Odiham in Hampshire on Tuesday 20th Feb, and they still haven't arrived in the IOM!
Also, got a buyer for the centre stand off my old bike who lives in Norway, and the initial quote for the postage is £35! I'm only asking £40 for the centre stand! I think the package prices are now taking the proverbial, especially as the same package would only cost £45 with FedEx, the courier company!
My spare seat for the Dominatrix has also found a buyer in Wales, and 2-day post for that is only £8 - much more acceptable! Just need to find a box big enough now lol
[Edit]What do you know, get home from work today and there's a card to say DHL tried to deliver something - DHL??? Went out and picked up the parcel, it's my crash bars! Bonus is that the bubble wrap bags that the bars were wrapped in is perfect for the seat and centre stand - both wrapped up and covered in brown paper and parcel tape ready to send :-)
