Default RMAing a package

Hi all,

I need to send a graphics card back on an RMA. It's less a kilo in weight, and needs to be trackable and insurable. Can anyone recommend a carrier?

Cheers,

Nick

£3.80 + 72p for Recorded Signed for at Royal Mail and you can print your label on line and just take it to a post office, this can then be traced online

That'll cover compensation up to £36 if you need more cover then £6.40 gets you Special Delivery with £500 cover and next day delivery guaranteed

Royal Mail sounds a good option! I could get it sent to you next day delivery Business Post for £6.75 (insured) otherwise! Unsure of the trackability of it... I'm sure it is on their webby they give me numbers and things when I do it!! I've always just trusted they will deliver when I've posted

Oooh this is UK delivery though at that price

Let me know Briggymeister!

(If you need anything delivered over the 5kg mark and as a package let me know in foochure as I will probably be able to get it half price than Royal Mail and next day delivery etc etc! But 1kg and under I canny beat RM!)

Royal Mail it is then Didn't know it was so simple - BFG (the company I'm sending it to) confused me by suggesting Fed Ex and UPS. As it's only £6.40 pheebs I won't use BP, but I'll bear it in mind in the future. Thanks all!

Sorry, how can I print off my own labels? Is it Royal Mail's website because I can't find anything?
