Oh right. They need a clean, what do you think is a reasonable price to sell them for? Thanks for the help.

If he's close to me he can pick them up or I'll ship them if he pays the shipping as well. Should be around Â£6-Â£10 depending on the weight plus the Â£40 and he's on. Tell him to message me. Nice one. Thanks.

I understand Graham (Trigger) has been trying to spend my money....again ;D ;D ;D ;D. I see the price for the carbs is Â£40 + postage. You may find the postage is a bit more than you are anticipating as the carbs are quite weighty. Can you weigh them for me please and work out a postage cost or let me know the weight and I will work it out.

Many thanks
Julie

Post by: Spanner1972 on July 07, 2015, 05:10:30 PM: Just weighted them and they are just under 5kg. Just spoke to the courier I use who are local to me and in all honest excellent in service and it will be Â£9:99 to post them. Hope this is ok for you.
