Exactly,
Cheap, helpfull, and even more helpfull.
I guess theres a big trust factor, but once people know each other then hey-presto.

I do actually need somerhing shifting, and am willing to do the usual delivery parcel firms, but  Just wondered if anything was in place already on here.

No mate, im just about to buy a bonet from someone off here due to a link passed to me on RR, so i thought instead of going from one forum to another id check if there was the same kind of set up.

You might do better just starting a thread titled "anyone going from A to B and willing to pickup a bonnet for me ?"
But the obvious issue is that you're new so people wouldn't know whether to trust you, but if as you said you're buying off someone on here who might be known then that might be ok.
