Default anybody near London uk?

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone is located near London or Hampshire.
I bought something off UK eBay but seller doesn't want to ship, only local collect.

Basically I'll pay you to collect this item and ship it to me.
Pm me please.

944UK the guy with bumpers has Location set to London. Probably best bet as he is experienced with shipping large stuff overseas.

I had the same problem, bought 2.7 engine off of ebay.co.uk and even arranged carrier pickup, but the seller wouldn't budge. Personal pickup only, we canceled the purchase.

I later got the information that engine was still in the car and that he expected buyer to take it out by himself.

So that was you, small world. Thanks.

The shop ruined it, but they paid for it and learned how to work on these blocks in the process.
