Does anyone know a company that will ship skis at a reasonable price within the UK? Everything I've found seems to cost £c. £30...

Manchester to London or even South of France if rates were similar.

I used interlink express to ship two sets of skis within the uk, they do europe as well, both sets were on their 3 days dilivery option and cost £15.70 each plas vat. They were the only one's I could find that would take a package 2meters long. Incidently one set of ski's were dilivered to wales in under 18hours the other set went to Norfolk and took 24hours. I sent them from Grantham which was the nearest pickup point. Their web site is www.interlinkexpress.com.

Thanks,
I also checked out the big name parcel carriers most would not take a package over 1.5m but some would do it as a speial costing between £50 and £80.

Tuffnells should cope with ski length OK. More set up for business users, rather than individual requirements, I think. But might be worth a try.

I've sent 1.7m packages via Royal Mail & also Parcelforce with no problems.

Snow and Rock in Manchester often send skis for servicing down to London. Maybe book a waxing and ask if you can pick them up from a London store - it may take a couple of weeks tho.
