Best Courier Australia

Hi All

Anyone sold a Rolex interstate and had to post it out?

Who would be the best courier to use? Also major couriers only have an insurance value of up to $5000?

The purchaser is happy for it to be posted by express signature required but without insurance.

Thanks in advance

Aus Post, I've never had a problem.

I used a courier a couple of times, only because it was available to do through work at the time.

For added comfort factor, consider photographing the packing and sending.

Trying to recall exactly what level of 'service' I used to send my watches to and fro between me and the RSC. It involved insurance and it did cover the value of the watch - $10K? Found AustPost fine to do the job. (well, the watches didn't get lost).

Hi there,
Reviving this thread again.
Just wondering what you used at the end for the shipping? Is there an equivalent to parcel pro service in Australia? What is the options to send watch with value over $5,000??

Thanks in advance
