Now that's really bad. There is a DTDC outlet (run by DTDC) from which I usually ship. This is one of their new swanky showrooms with bells and whistles, so if they resort to this, would be sad indeed.

You can select good origin office but you cant control transit and destination office ;)

A theft is a theft, it doesnt matter if it took place at originating office or in-transit or destination office, Check out last 5-10 pages of courier feedback thread and you can see that dtdc fellows have not spared even soaps and Deos :@

And in Dell streak case, the service used was DTDC BLUE :P So even the blue service is not spared.

Buddy I think you misunderstood something.

I know how terrible DTDC is and my reply was for agantuk's post stating the quick transit times.

I have used overnite express for shipping a phone to orissa, they have a tamper proof pouch system for mobiles and will cost you around Rs.400, you will have to show them the handset+all the accessories as they write down everything in detail on a form which is attached to that pouch.

I carried the packing material in my bag and packed it after showing all the contents, then it was sealed inside a plastic pouch, they have many branches but i gave it directly at the Regional head office:

I shipped Iphone4 from New Delhi to Mumbai,using Aramex.They collected the package from my place.

Very economical and fast service.

You can try contacting the local aramex office in your area.

I have the same question, has anyone used Parcelmonkey?

as per @mjeri feedback, its not good! I even paid two times and later decided not to send... got the refund. According to them, they are in talks with some new leading courier service india and will announce new partner soon. But this was the information they given to me during january :(
 
Used Speedpost to send electronic items last few times and its been an excellent experience. Pricing, delivery time are all great. They have no issues in taking electronic items, but you may need to show the contents before they accept. But do pack it perfectly with enough bubble wrap, thermocol, etc.

It just cost me Rs 210 to send a 2.25 kg package from Cochin to Ahmedabad and was delivered on the 3rd day with a Sunday in between.
 
Aramax, First Flight both r pathetic.... Customer service is worst, they refused to send electronic items such as "Grpahics cards" ... Aramax did not even tell phone numbers for local branches....
