… how much a standard suspension kit (shocks and springs) from an Octavia hatchback might weigh? I need to work out courier costs but have no way of weighing the box.

I suppose I could just enter "bloody heavy" on the form

No one?

Use parcel2go.com, up to 30kg is about £8.50 and your std suspension weighs less than 30kg. They collect it from your door and that price is for 2-4 day delivery which more often arrives within 2 days - Rich

When I sold mine it was £14.99 with Parcel Force 48 tracked service

Cheers fellas. I've been away for a bit. Busy trying to find another job :(

Oh well, maybe I can raise the price of a cuppa selling the suspension on Ebay

Just weigh yourself then do it again while holding the box on a set of bathroom scales.

Hadn't thought of that …
