    It’s a long time since I sent anything to the States or to any other country. What would members’ advice be on which Courier to use - or Royal Mail? Has quite a high value so would need full insurance cover.

    I use a courier myself because Royal Mail still have a policy of 'crush anything that looks a bit different' in place. Also, they can be eye wateringly expensive.

    I use Evri (what a stupid name!) as they're cheap and have never messed up. The big boys like UPS and FedEx are always so expensive, I think because they prefer corporate contracts rather than dealing with us regular folk.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks both. I’ve never used UPS before and was cheated out of a lot of money by Fedex a while back so will never use them again. But…..Evri cloud has a silver lining so they say @ColinG so might just stick with them.
