Shipping an ebike

[lee m-t]

Hi to all on pedelecs!

Bought a Vanmoof S3 off of eBay, pickup only from Queensferry that is only 45 minutes from me

After making the purchase and getting the postcode from the seller I realised that it's Queensferry near Edinburgh!

Question for all on here, what is a reasonable cost shipper to collect this bike and bring it to Wilmslow?

Don't really fancy 9 hours in the car and £100 of fuel too!

fuel plus the cost of the guy to go get it but plenty out there.

Generally you're allowed a week to collect the bike, but I'm wondering if a discounted train ticket would turn up in this sale?
