Default shipping costs please?!!

Hi all, being a real lazy ass here, what have you all paid for a 20ft container or half container lately and with who?
Have had a couple of quotes from scotland to Brisbane.
Your experiences/recommendations would be very much appreciated

hehe I am starting to see why I got very few replies when I asked this a few months ago It must be a fav question...

We also have gone with Pickfords after we asked for a requote...

My advice, as with Estate Agents, get 3 quotes then haggle with the company/person you like the most

I got 2 quotes, 1 from Pickfords £3600 and 1 from John Mason £3,300.
I am going with John Mason. At the end of the day if they want your business they should just give you their best price from the start. If they didn't I would not be able to trust them.
