    I'm looking for options to get a frame from America back here to Ireland. The seller is looking for a prepaid shipping label, anyone any recommendations or suggestions of how to do this? What kind of cost am I looking at? Anyone any other suggestions of how to go about getting it shipped from US. Thanks in advance

    Not quite sure what a prepaid shipping label is but when I imported my titanium frame from the States I was simply charged a delivery charge by the supplier. The real sting in the tail however is the customs charges you will face.

    I'm not sure what you are doing here, but be careful if buying with PayPal and thinking you have 'cover' for loss or fraud - you may not have any comeback if you send your own courier - PayPal cover loss only if the seller uses specific carriers in each country.

    This is normally an issue for the buyer, rather than the seller, but if you pay and go to the trouble of sending a courier, you want to be very sure that the item and location for collection are legitimate. As far as I know, your ability to avail of charge-back (in the above scenarion) on PayPal is significantly impaired if a PayPal authorised carrier is involved.

    I dont want to scaremonger, but just check it out carefully if PayPal is being used.
