    HI all

    Can anyone please help me, and tell me how you posted the bag which skillstrain sent you when you signed up to the course. What size was the post envelope?

    Its quite big, this question is mostly for people who have used skillstrain before and returned the bag. The size is 40x30 cm Long. Its about 8 cm thick.

    How did you receive it?
    Was it left by the salesman, or was it sent to you?

    You may just want to wrap it in strong paper or cardboard and take it to the post office.

    I doubt it - but some post offices sell specialist packaging, wrapping and boxes etc.
    Try and find a main branch with a shop in it.

    Failing that, have a look in staples of some other stationery place.

    If it means saving a few grand, don't try and scrimp on this...

    Is there anything in the terms and conditions to say you have to return the item if you decide to cancel?

    Okay how quickly are you expecting the refund back from them when you do get the bag. I bet they wont be as quick to refund you as quickly as they took the money from you.
