Fulfilment Services Recommendations?

[AnimalMother]

There are quite a few mail order seller who post here so hopefully a few people can share their experiences of fulfillment companies.

After being inspired by the £500 challenge thread, Ive found a supplier with a few items at surprisingly good prices even at lowish volumes. So I'm looking for a fulfillment company to handle what will only be a small amount of products and orders. It would most probably be better if I did it myself, but I'm in full time employment and this is only really meant to be a side line.

So any recommendations?

What are the ball park figures?

There is a list of possibles here (and of course Amazon):

I've visited Codestorm's warehouse (Farlington, Portsmouth) and had a tour, quite an impressive set up they have. Appeared to be slick, clean, tidy, high tech and secure.

I will use them in the future if my current set up ever changes and I will likely speak to them about holiday cover as they also offer other services such as phone answering, order taking, processing orders on the website etc etc.

I didn't think the pricing was that bad if I'm honest. I'm sure if you're sending hundreds a day it'll cost too much, but compare it to renting a unit, staff, electric, rates etc it's not so bad!!

I used these guys in a past life and they were a good bunch: http://pack-it.com/
