468599 2006-07-04 13:43:00 I need to send a computer to Wellington from Auckland - the entire thing including monitor etc.

Can anyone suggest who to use and what sort of cost?

Thanks!

ps - no need to mention Fastway - definitly won't use them.

BUT their prices are getting ridiculous. Cost me $48 to send a comp from Rotorua to New Plymouth last month. That was just one package. No Monitor.
Seems they charge on weight or size. Whichever gives the the higher price.

Haven't used them for a while, though.

468602 2006-07-04 22:03:00 I had this problem recently - had to send one from Southland to Auckland.

For the PC box it cost $36 with PostHaste. It got there in 2 days too.

NZCouriers were going to be $75, Fastway (NOT) Would be $75, NZPost wasn't cost effective because of the necessity of having to insure it which would have added immensely to the cost.
