| Potential pick up of small package from Fareham. |
|
Long story short.
Potentially may need a small package (12" sq) picked up from someone (unknown to me) in Fareham.
You wouldn't need to move it on, as I'd send a courier in to to collect it from you at a day of your choice.
Might just need it boxed up and ability to print off a label.
Anyone able to offer their help .... if needed?

I'm about 15 miles/30 minutes from Fareham; much depends on timing, but I may be able to help.
As suggested I would have thought that Dave Bartos (Big Dave) of MD Couriers Ltd could deal with this direct.
I will PM my contacts details to you Ron just in case.

Well aware of Big Dave thanks
But that's not at the point I'm at.
As said - long story short :-
Was interested in (eBay) something that was "collection only", messaged them to say could I send a courier in to collect, yes was the answer, bid/bought/paid for said item ... at way below value, had no contact from seller since Fri, thinking seller may not want now to conclude on the contract (because of low sale price).
So thinking "collection only" per original post should conclude. 🏴

This:-
https://crime-statistics.co.uk/postcode/po14%201je
is just one postcode PO14 1JE - 69 violence & sexual offences in June 2019 alone.
There are some pretty dodgy areas of Fareham, which frankly, I wouldn't visit under any circumstances.
Hope your parcel isn't near one of them.

Don't think so, reckon they're from a snobby area (if their is one). 
I messaged them with a nice explanatory request re getting a courier to collect, I got a one word answer - 'yes' ! 
So, suppose they could be snobby or downright illiterate. 🏴

Oh yes; Fareham does have an upmarket area - here's an illustration:-

Interesting to see how things pan out.
