Still not sure that would work - most sellers don't want hordes of
individual couriers turning up to collect individual customers' orders.
They'll have one courier company they work with, who turns up the same
time each day, probably the same guy, and they load in their stack of
parcels and that's that.


You have a point. A high volume seller would cause traffic jams. ;-)

Winder if it's occurred to anyone that some customers feel that same way!

A decent seller in my book should offer a choice of courier and Royal
Mail - at least we can choose the option where the depot isn't 50 miles
away (had one of those).
