Re: Up to date Shipping Quotes
Update we have desided to drasticly reduce the amount of stuff we are taking and now have only one quater of a 20f containers worth going and been quoted about £1600-1700 for that.
The £2300 saved will pay of the items we are leaving pluss we will sell the stuff and get some £ for that.
Ikea here we come (well next year anyhoo )
