Saddler did indeed send guns to my RFD for transfer to me by Royal Mail. One s1 and two s2!
Really handy and especially welcome as I didn't have to meet up face to face with the bugly fastard....!!

You overlooked the 'London' bit. £75 will buy two people a slap up sandwich

I have just sold a rifle to a non local RFD, he has paid me for the rifle + the shipping cost of £50 for my RFD to pack the rifle for me in one of their shipping boxes and do all the paperwork. That is my RFD's standard charge for packing & shipping a firearm such as a rifle.

Thank you for that.
I payed it as I had no other option I don't have a car and only found out how much it would be when I got my rifle to the shop and I didn't want to take the rifle all the way back home. Here in London they charge you £50 to send via RFD normally in hind sight it would have been cheaper for me to have got a train to an RFD in brightion who charges £25
