You appreciate the reliability - rapidity and estimation of the value of your colis, as the regulations are based on the rapidity of the intervention since November 18 so it is a matter of the day after the prize and the charge of the colis. Cela me semble remarquable. Thank you infiniment. Isabelle

I found the experience satisfying. The staff were very helpful. I received a realistic price for my box. I know this because I had checked the value before sending it and there was really nothing in it I wanted to keep. Communication was good. I will definitely use this company again.
