http://www.thedx.co.uk/ Hope this helps Julie @Islington -----Original Message----- From: For interlibrary-loan and document supply services. [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Document Delivery Service University of Durham Sent: 26 January 2007 17:59 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: delivery methods Dear Pat, Still looking at alternatives to the regional van... I'm having difficulty finding Hays DX's website and I wondered if you could help. (I seem to remember vaguely hearing that they had split form DX so I don't know what I'm looking for). Basically what I wanted to ask was - would you have any idea how much Hays would charge for a 15kg parcel, a 2kg package and a 50kg (or 2x25kg) parcels? I'm trying to get prices for our average, minimum and maximum consignments to BL. If you could then that would be brilliant. Anyway it's time to go home - I hope you have a good weekend!
