With a recent survey from HSBC revealing that more than one in
ten people plan on making use of online shopping outlets this
Christmas, Parcel2Go has urged shoppers to use a trusted courier for
deliveries.
The survey also found that despite the state of the economy, people intend on
spending just as much on Christmas this year as they have in the past, with an
average spend of £560 per person.
Richard Mercer, marketing director of Parcel2Go, said: “In the current financial
climate Parcel2Go understands that people want to be able to enjoy Christmas as much
as possible, and that means they may end up feeling forced to cut corners elsewhere
in order to buy all of the presents, food and other things they need to make the
season special.
“As HSBC’s survey shows, many people will be turning towards the internet when
buying Christmas presents this year, but when it comes to getting purchases
delivered we just want shoppers to be absolutely certain that they are using a
reliable delivery method so that their presents arrive on time and in good
condition, which all of the couriers that
we work with can provide.”
He continued: “We’ve seen it before – shoppers buy Christmas presents from foreign
sellers over eBay and other online auction websites and choose a cheaper delivery
method, thinking that they’re saving money. They end up having to wait weeks for
their items though, whereas if they had chosen a courier, their purchases could have
been with them in a matter of days.”
Many different courier services work in conjunction with Bolton-based Parcel2Go, and
shoppers buying online can pick between them to get the best value for money on a
high-quality delivery service that will save them having to put up with any
heartache over the Christmas period.
