Can anyone suggest cheap and reliable courier options?

Hi,

I recently started selling books on Ebay, and while I have received a decent response, I am having a bit of difficulty in finding a good, cheap and reliable courier service.

I have mostly been using Professional Courier till now, but my experience has been similar to other ebay sellers. ( the price is ok, but they have already lost one parcel, and the delivery is almost always delayed..)

Have just switched to Blaze-flash, but don't think they are too reliable either. ( But they seem ok for now)

Can anyone recommend some other services? Not sure, if i can afford to pay more than Rs. 30-50/- per book in courier fees.

Thanks,
Regards,
Mehul Jain

Don t depend on one ,

Get quotations from some,

then let all get some orders from you, 

observe their services and support,

the local person i.e franchisee needs to be cooperative.

 

Powership is also convenient, if u have completed 30 transactions,go for it.

Priority customer support is given to centralised accounts ,like ebay.

You don t need any corporate account @DTDC
Just let them know your business, they will quote a rate for domestic & within state & local delivery.
I agreed @Rs 40 domestic flat.
With pickup service.
