Can anyone who had a set from Ronnie remember the dimensions of the packages? Height, width, length and weight?

I think postage will be coming in at about £7 for next day service. This is with Parcel Monkey. This only £0.14 more than their economy service. This price also assumes that everyone lives on the mainland and not Northern Ireland/Scottish Islands etc.

Hopefully I can get this down a bit too if I phone them up and tell them I have 16+ parcels to send

Wgroove, I won't be asking for payment from anyone until I have the bolts in my living room and ready to send out. However, I won't be sending any out until they have been paid for. Unfortunately, as you live in Belgium, postage will be a bit more. Cheapest I can find is £11.75.

Edit: I could close this group before the end of the month and put the order in sooner if everyone one wants to pay up front? The only reason I was going to leave it until the end of the month was because I really don't have all that much money at the moment (just out of uni, currently completing my first full month of work ). I'll still need to hear from the people on the list who haven't yet confirmed though. I do appreciate that some people may not want to pay up front, having never met me and me being fairly new here

Malcolm, done

With regards to packaging, would people like them boxed up or are you happy with them being wrapped in bubble wrap and brown parcel paper? Trying to keep the costs as low as possible.

Thanks Terry.

No need to worry about weighing them. Ronnie has spotted this thread as he had a quick look around earlier and has emailed me the information

So I can work out a firm price I am going to put a 20 set cap on this group.

I found a place that can supply the longest bolts (which are by far the most expensive ones) for a lot less than the supplier Ronnie used can

Using the prices for 15 sets it's looking close to £14 + the postage
