Hi


As You can't be everywhere and world is going fast you need something to save time and make life easier ,there comes pick and pack service and i would like to ask what do You think about this type of service ? what are good and bad sides of it ? Do You use any ? Do You know any reliable and trustworthy?

I have found a few in google and one on forum (the one from TWF you know)
These are the google ones:

parcel2go.co.uk
http://www.vdepot.co.uk/

I think if you got large enough to use one you would possibly save more money by just hiring people if you have the space for them to work.

Well You see my biggest problem is that im in ireland and lot of competitors offer next day uk shipping (from ROI usually takes up to 5days) and also the postage within uk is way cheaper. So i have 2 choices move to UK or get pick and pack service I guess lots of people have similar problem. Would like to trade in uk but cannot be there...
And i totally agree with You that it would be better to do it on my own.

Ah I see parcel2go is probably the best known but how there pricing system is I dont know... there used to be a few on the forum but i think only devilwear is left now..

Yes i spoke to him and another member of forum. Spoke also to parcel to go but hmmmm they seems to quite hard to deal with ehehe vdepot seems also nice as they can do container loads but i dont know how reliable they are. My only concerns is about giving this task to somebody who already sells items.

[wulf2ram]

yeh that is a concern as you feel your taking a back seat if it all gets to busy on there side. Thats probably why parcel2go is recommended but they dont really plug that service so maybe they arent that interest?

[DEI]

parcel2go do that service and thats for sure but i think the person i spoke to wasnt a proper guy he just confirmed that they do it but he just couldnt answer my questions so i need to call them 2morrow. And as You said back seat is not always safe as you dont know what is happening in front.

[wulf2ram]

[DEI]

sure i will i also spoke to vdepot but i dont know if they are trustworthy .... there's also an opton with amazon
