Get the seller to measure it.

I've sold and shipped a 944 exhaust before - it was longer than the carrier officially took but a phone call sorted things,

I asked the seller, all he's said so far is that it would fit on a europallet! That sounds expensive to ask for a shpping cost. I'm guessig th epallett would weigh as much as the exhaust.

I'm struggling here, could do with some advice please :-(

Europallet is 80cm x 1.2m It is a standard size for shipping companies, so they should be fine with giving you a cost.

The longest distance possible on a europallet (diagonally) is 1.44m

Standard Pallet is 1.2m x 1.2m

Euro is 1.0m x 1.2m

You can usually get pallets moved about for £70-80, although insurance on goods like that is usually pretty poor.

Really though, if he just wraps it up in heavy cardboard and tape or similar, almost any courier like UK Mail/Nightline, DPD, Fastway etc will all be more than happy to lift it.

No, Eur2 is 1m x 1.2m. The euro unit is 0.8 x 1.2 and 144mm tall.
