Guest DieBees Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I have used Timefreight before with no issues. Just make sure the sender wraps it thoroughly.
fabes Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Would be nice of the seller to organize all this from his side for you.

Guest DieBees Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Depends what was agreed between the two parties. I wouldnt say it is the responsibility of the seller.

It's jut considerate of the seller to arrange travel arrangements for the bike he just sold to someone out of town. It does not have to be for the sellers account

Cav' Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Get a box from your lbs and send it through Time freight. I've done it 3 times
Skylark Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Get a box from your lbs and send it through Time freight. I've done it 3 times An old box from an unpacked new bike? That would be the best.Eeish I've asked a few times and they never have any lying around at that moment, they normally say come back next week getting more bikes but I'll need the box in the next day or 2 or I'll go next week and the new stock hasn't arrived yet. A bit hit n miss.
urbanroyal Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Or you could as the the seller to drop it off at the nearest Cycle Lab and they will pack/box it and send it to a Cycle Lab closest to you and you pick up there ...that will be about 500rand ...
