Hello all.
Looking for help from a forum member who lives in Germany or Austria or Belgium

or anyone with any ideas of how to get a chainsaw (engine only) forwarded and posted to the UK that is now in Austria

etc. etc.
I have a vintage chainsaw engine stuck in the Neunkirchen area of Austria and the owner is not being very helpful in posting to the United Kingdom.
Seems simple to me but ????? All ideas and any good or bad jokes on this predicament might be helpful ect. ect. ect.
Thank you all Phil

Thanks Gloop.
I am jumping back and forth between Goole Translate and Ebay messaging to copy and paste messages right now

, I think I am getting somewhere but don't really know if English grammar translates into the right context in the German language

I am seeing it as a bit of a challenge

It's got to be do-able, going to buy a German phrase book and dictionary tomorrow and get a grip on the "Spraken Sie Deutsh" lingo ?
Thanks Phil

Thanks Steve.
I will keep you posted on progress, got I issue sorted, "2 chainsaws in pieces in I parcel from Berlin for 21 Euros"

postage with DHL was more than the cost of the 2 saws

Waiting on another reply but I know that she has gone to Austria until the New Year. Thank you and Seasonal Greetings to everyone
