subject: Massive memorabilia market needs reliable courier company support [print this page] The market for any item connected with major sporting, music or film idols is growing massively, as people use the resources opened up via the internet to learn more about their heroes and heroines.
In tandem with this, there has been a huge increase in demand for all items of memorabilia linked to major sporting events. The most dramatic illustration of this was when Sir Geoff Hurst's red England no. 10 shirt, worn by the hat-trick scoring hero of the 1966 World Cup final, was put on sale in June 2010 with an asking price of a cool 2.3million.
Now no-one would be likely to consider asking an express delivery company to handle such an item. But at a more down-to-earth level, many thousands of items are put up for sale every day, which will eventually find an appreciative new owner.
With these, an express delivery company which can collect an item at a convenient time from the seller's location, and get it to where its new owner wants it with the minimum of fuss can be a great help.
Many courier companies specialise in handling such cargoes, and with the help of the latest technology, they can back up this service with an easy to use parcel tracking facility.
This can be especially valuable when a desirable item is being sent, as the vehicle in which it is transported is fitted with a satellite receiver, allowing it to transmit information about its exact whereabouts back to the delivery company concerned.
For both the sender and the recipient, this then means that they can have access to this information, and be reassured that the item involved is in safe hands. Parcel tracking systems in use today are so sophisticated that they can even provide real-time location details for a particular package, which can be used to give a realistic idea of when it is expected to reach its destination.
So no matter how valuable the contents of a parcel, and how complicated a journey it has to travel to reach its destination, it can be monitored throughout, so that both the seller and the buyer can trust that the package is in safe hands.
The various cheap shipping services offer sophisticated parcel tracking of every consignment. So no matter what it is, or how much it is worth, you can be sure that any item of international freight is being handled with care.
