Anyone happen to know this? I sold my two seats to the same buyer. So I boxed them together and it turned out the courrier wanted £80. I stand to make a loss as I only put £20 each for the seats; I assumed that was enough as thats what other sellers were charging. obviously not. Therefore I am going to try shop around but my time is limited. I am yrying to use an online calculator but without the weight they are usless.

Use a different courier. Most will have a flat rate for transporting interiors etc

Most want the weight of the item. Delivering it myself is not an option. other side of the country.

b******s. In your "had a bad idea" thread is the real photo and the colour of your car is nothing like that above. Crap camara or not. You have adjusted the colour that much you've turned a green tree red.

The courier may not price on weight alone, but on size. They work out how much room it will take up on a vehicle and then give you a price based on that (volumetric weight). A pair of seats may be classed as freight which is always more expensive.
For a pair of seats, you could be looking at volumetric weight of 100kg.
