Courier Delivery Concern for the Seller!!

[pda-cafe]

hi
I am a seller at ebay from a long time , dealing in mobile phones.
Trading on ebay has a bottleneck which i face every time i have to sell a product i.r. Courier agencies refusing to accept the mobile phones for delivery.
I am located at bangalore , where most of the courier agencies such as DTDC, Aramex, TNT, Bluedart refuse to take the mobile phone for courier delivery.
i am posting this to find out if any you would know a courier agency (at bangalore )which will take the shipment of mobile phones safely
I would appreciate if some one could put me on to a contact person in the courier agency at bangalore for the same.
regards
Vijay

Dear Vijay,

I am from Bangalore, I have sold products like Palm PDA Smart Phones and Laptops sent through TNT. You need to have an account with the TNT if you need to send high value items. ---------------

Hi PDA-Cafe,
I have the exact same problem! I've visited both First Flight and Blue Dart today, both of whom refused to accept the package as they don't accept mobile phones. I've contacted OverNite couriers and they said they would send it but charge quite a bit! I'm going to contact BlazeFlash couriers (I've dealt with them before and they are good) tomorrow to find out. Will let you know what happens. By the way, I'm from Bangalore too.

DEAR FRIENDS
BLUE DART IS ACCEPTING MOBILE PHONES AT ANY LOCATION ONLY DECLARED VALUE SHOULD BE LESS THAN 5000.00
IF YOU ARE SHIPPING A ITEM FOR MORE THAN 5000.00 RS, YOU MAY DO AS SUCH:
GIVE A "GIFT INVOICE" FOR RS 5000 ALONG WITH YOUR PARCEL DECLARING MOBILE PHONE. SEND THE ORIGINAL INVOICE TO BUYER SEPRATELY THROUGH COURIER.
IF YOU FACE ANY KIND OF PROBLEM, CONTACT ME ON 09896432444. I AM FRANCHISE OF BLUEDART IN YAMUNANAGAR-135001 ITSELF

ship by overnite not too expensive and ships phones with insurance for 300 whose value is below 5000 and a lil more if value is above 5000

what about the taxes and all....like blue dart people say that you need to give your tin no. if you are sending it for selling purpose....so all this doesnt become kind of illegal...
or evrytime i need to tell them that its for gift purpose???
