Khun Jean Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 As one of the courier services fouled up their work i am now in need to get a package consisting of 12 posters used for advertising as soon as possible to the Netherlands. If someone can deleiver this package for me in The Netherlands i would be very happy. Financial compensation is no problem. The package can be seen openend, so no 'strange' items. It is around 20 Kilo, 1 meter long, about 25 centimeters diameter. It will get charged for overweight if you already have reached the allowed limit. This will be compensated. Please give me a PM if you can help me with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutch Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Open - inspected or whatever..... Taking parcels from a stranger was already a big NO 25 years ago. Still hope you're successful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun Jean Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 I understand the distrust. These posters are easy to check. No small packages to conceal something. BTW It's is cheaper and more available if you want to buy drugs in the Netherlands. These are just 12 pieces (100cmx200cm) of vinyl printed with a company logo. Don't want to name names beacuse normally they do their work good. This time it just 'got lost'. Maybe they find it in time and all extra effort is for nothing. I wait until tomorrow evening to see if i find somebody. If not, i buy a ticket, and deliver it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosquitoman Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 These posters are easy to check.No small packages to conceal something. There is nothing to stop people washing drugs (powders such as heroin or cocaine) into the paper or fibres of a poster or T shirt. This trick has been used many times to smuggle drugs, The drugs when washed into the paper or fibre remain invisible to the naked eye. No offence Khun Jean, Im not trying to suggest for one minute thet you would do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khun Jean Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 No offence mosquitoman. Transporting drugs would be a dumb idea anyway. If it was from the Netherlands to Bangkok i would be very carefull. Transporting drugs to the Netherlands would be like pouring water into the sea. To comfort the suspicious, i don't offer 10.000 euro for the transport, although 10.000 bath will be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Jones Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 My Question would Be Why dont you just POST it special delevery????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun Jean Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 Good post skippy bangkok, keeps the post current. As i said, normally they do their work good. Now they didn't. No names because of that. I normally very happy with their services. And it was not with one of those you mentioned. Those are not reliable anyway. Some are a lot better.

Khun Jean Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 Mr. Jones. I had to reprint the posters yesterday. They were ready 20:00. If it was 2 hours sooner i would not have this problem. It has to arrive before sunday evening late. All i can get is monday morning or afternoon. I tried all the couriers and air cargo forwarders. Can't be done for a normal or even affordable price. Cheapest is around 40.000 baht. For that money i buy a ticket myself, and use it to visit family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Jones Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Ah Khun Jean Now i see Have a good flight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun Jean Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 I am preparing for that. But if you not ask, you will never know. It would save me from rescheduling everything, but if there is no other way, i accept it. Teaches me to not trust blindly on the services of normally good function courier companies, and have a contigency plan available, Alas in this case that would have been difficult.
