Same please! thanx Eddie!

also could this be easily posted via mail? Could someone advise on how, If unsure on how best way is!
If able to post maybe buyers interested can just pay for time / cost of posting, Rather than it cloggin up ya tank and having to chuck.
Eddie if your no posting is just a simple no for various reasons, No worries mate, Hopefully i will be passing one day!
thanx
Ben

I`d love to have some if you`re prepared to post

If I post plants I tend to gently wrap them in some wet kitchen paper, put into a small plastic bag and seal it then put them into an A5 size jiffy bag. I also tend to write on the back of the jiffy what`s enclosed as Royal Mail have been known to open packets that contain 'plant life'

Let me know what price you`re looking for?

Royal Mail dont open packages unless the destination of the package is unreadable or the label has been dislogded.
This is so the item can be forwarded or returned to sender.
Customs open packages for various reasons.

I would be more then happy to pay the cost of p&p.

How many plants would we get ??

 

[michmash/eddie]

sorry that it has taken so long to reply, i have been so busy at work (thats army life for you)

I will look into postage costs this weekend, but i wont be able to post untill next weekend.

I will probably post out 5-8 plants per person, and send out in order of who replied on here first. these plants grow so quickly and i will probably have some every 3 weeks.

At the moment there is probably enough for 5-6 people.

Ill update as soon as i can

Know what the army life is like so no apologies needed

I`m afraid I`m withdrawing my request. I`m looking at changing the stocking of my tank so it`s best for me not to get any more plants at the moment. Especially considering I`ll more than likely be selling the plants I currently have but thanks anyway
