nothing wrong with Nicky, may he ride in peace... (although yes, that scheme may be a lil loud for some!)
You could have gone onto www.postagesupermarket.com and picked a discounted Parcel Force Post Office Drop Off service. You then email the packing labels to the seller when received - he sticks them on the package and drops off at his local Post Office who scan it so it can be tracked. Can't see why he wouldn't just post it though!
@tboooe Hi mate if all else fails I have a white seat pod sat in my garage for sale . I'd willing send it to the states.
Thank you much @cookster . Can you please confirm the part #? If you have the 1198 then that color is polar white I believe. I need the arctic white silk color, part # 96904510A. BTW, I did a quick search in the classifieds but didnt see it for sale.
