Anyone near North Shields?? - SV650.org

As the title says.
I'm looking at something on e bay which is a local pick up only, now me being at the other end of the country causes a slight problem.
The seller isn't willing to get a quote for postage and can't be arsed to package the goods.
So any lovely norverners living in the afore mentioned area? Would it be possible for you to pick up said items and then i can arrange a courier service to collect from your home or work?
Any costs you incur i will happily cover

Many thanks,
Cuffy.

PS: I'm waiting for the seller to send me his postcode so i'll have a better idea of where you'll need to go.

Yes it is, due to the guy's spelling it doesn't come up in a regular search, so if all comes good i can save myself in the region of £200/£300.
Deepest darkest Wiltshire is the answer to your 2nd question.
