Aus Post cop a lot of flack, to be sure. Sometimes for good reason of

Can honestly say that when we have used them for mail order sales, we
have never had a problem. Only ever had one idiot ring up and complain
about oder not arriveing and abuse SWMBO about it, then say "I'm fed up
with stuff being pinched from my mailbox"

Lol, if the silly bugger had been polite, his order would have been in
the post the next morning, but the rejoiner was "we are not responsible
for that" CLICK.



Just as another example of the huge contrast between the couriers here
and Aus Post, I picked up a parcel sent from China this morning. From my
payment until I had the item in my hands - nine days - and that includes
the xmas break.

I also routinely recieve express post satchels from Victoria within 24
hours.
