Reliable courier service for sending stuff across India?
I've got a bunch of stuff that needs to be couriered to ThinkDigit'ers across India. The usual suspects in my area (DTDC, Vichare, Professional Courier) are utter pansies and seem wary of anything remotely electronic (graphics cards, stereo BT headphones, watches etc.). DTDC is okay with ordinary earphones and such but does anyone know of a good (and reliable) courier service in Bombay that doesn't ask a zillion questions. Of course, I'm not looking for high end shippers like DHL.

Re: Reliable courier service for sending stuff across India?
Well, DTDC and Professional are good,
but, always wrap ur commodities in a good thermocol or air bubble packing, as any of these courier ppl will ask u the same question yaar..

Err..BlueDart charges a whopping Rs. 230 for 0.1kgs (100gms), at least according to their shipping estimation tool. I'd rather drive to Delhi myself than pay that much!

No matter what I do, TPC (Professional) refuses to accept any electronic gadgets.

Gati or DHL. (though I think DHL might be expensive, do check them out though)

Professional courier are very reliable and in my opinion Gati is also a good option.

Re: Reliable courier service for sending stuff across India?
Try DHL or FedEx.... They are the best for international courier. Blue Dart is also good.
Dont go for DTDC and other local courier.
Both of the above options are expensive though!

Err.. I'm not trying to send stuff overseas and have a more reliable shipping service for those needs. Anyhow, I've found a local courier service that might be perfect.
Thanks to all who replied.
