Anyone Collecting From Vectis?

[Cazza]

Hi all, is anyone going to be collecting their wins from Vectis in the near future? I won 2 MOCs, which have lifting bubbles and am quite concerned that they won't get to me in one piece. Ideally, they need wrapping in foil before going into a Star Case, and I don't think Vectis will offer this service! If anyone could collect and box up for me properly, that would be amazing. Obviously I would send the appropriate funds over

There is bound to be someone going, but if not you might be able to pick up from the Cambridge branch, if it's closer for you. You could ask them to pack in foil if you offer to pay for roll.

Thanks mate- Cambridge is still really far- I'm in Gloucestershire. Hopefully someone can help

I know [mention]Richard_H[/mention] picked a load up earlier in the year. I can't spaek for him but he may be able to help.

Thanks Adam- I know Rich lives in Gateshead, but it's still a bit of a drive from there to Vectis. I've emailed them about packaging- will be interested to see what they say...

I once drove to the Oxford Vectis office. I got my stuff transferred there. (It was about 30 MOC IIRC)

It was a couple of hours from the south west. Would that be a better option for you from Gloucestershire?

Their packaging has always been very good in my experience. You just never know though, picking up is probably best.

(sorry I was thinking of Oxford branch)

Vectis have got back to me and will use foil or clingfilm to wrap the card. Excellent!

I always found vectis shipping quotes to be extremely good and i mostly buy big lots of ships. They would normally charge £20 or there
abouts for a big box full where as mailboxes or jentel want £60+

Well done on that Cazza.
I too have always found Vectis very helpfull.
The old saying, "If you don`t ask, you don`t get " comes to mind :lol:

Massive thanks to Rich for taking the time out to collect, pack and send these to me within a couple of days. Absolute legend! Packaging was the best I've seen on a MOC 8)
