    I was wondering how people send their xboxes around the country to be flashed, what courier do they use, i have got some people to post drives only, but a lot of people are afraid to open their xbox

    how is this relevant to console modding?

    EDIT: professional modding companies should know how to use professional delivery companies.

    I thought boards was about helping out people, and getting info, not picking on one mistake a poster made, and keep having a go at that poster.

    As TV said, I think that link originally came from Witnessmenow, seems very reasonable.

    I've sent a few around using standard registered post also, with a tracking number.

    Folks, please don't turn this into a train-wreck like that last thread :)

    Yup, the wiseloads.com link is from Witnessmenow and they must be pretty decent because a guy posted me 3 mainboards to JTAG with 'em. 1 day delivery too :P

    my apologies. Was stuck in the traffic for few hours and that affected my mood.
    Once again I'm sorry.

    You could prepare some kind of tutorial or guidance how to open the Xbox to take out the drive, just the thought.
    I'm using An Post registered mostly, no problems so far.

    Yeah I'll also recomend wiseloads, although had a bit of an issue last week with them, they were ment to collect something Thursday and they only collected it monday, with no explenation?

    Now, its possible its my fault as I put through the order on my phone. I'll be getting in touch when im back in Ireland, if I ever get back (had my 3rd flight cancelled today!)

    I believe An Post is €16-€20 for one console registered.

    Wiseloads is €12.10 and you can possibly add more. I posted 3 mainboards and cages for €12.10 too.
