I phoned Crown and they agreed to let us pay the balance once we had this money - in the end my bank gave me a loan within 48 hours which we paid off a week later - I decided this might be easier even though Crown said it was ok - that may of been because Crown were storing our stuff free for 6 weeks - if you were wanting them to ship right away they might want payment 1st. Just phone your shipper and ask - they will be used to that - not everyone has £3500 lying around!

One possible solution might be to offer your shippers a irrevokable undertaking from the solicitor handling your sale to pay the bill once your sale goes through if it looks as if its being delayed. At least its legal security for them and a solicitor should not charge much for drafting it - its a simple letter document. Just a thought
