AUSTRALIA POST SUCKS
karmann141 - September 11th, 2015 at 07:41 PM

Ordered some small Kombi sliding door parts from Just Kampers (Sydney) on week-end which was dispatched on Monday - well done.

Order has still not been received in Brisbane by end of day on Friday (capital city to capital city) - PISS POOR effort Australia Post. On line tracking states"in transit".

Would have liked to fit parts on week-end in preparation of a big fishing/camping trip. Expensive postage and shit service.:mad:

Certainly makes purchasing for OS more attractive as I've certainly recieved parts from the US in less time.

Lol,I understand your pain. Getting a parcel couriered(not AusPost) from Sydney to Mackay, took 1 day to get to Brisbane, 7 days later and it still hasn't made it from Brisbane to Mackay.

Maybe I can bring it up for you - getting Kombi ready for trip to Sarina :lol:

Yes, and it's getting worse. I've been waiting ten days for a small parcel from Sydney to Hobart containing a HDMI Lead .

I ordered a new inlet manifold for our MB from Denmark by DHL, it took three days from Denmark to Melbourne and four days from Melbourne to Hobart?

Àustralia Post is now really a two tier system, you either get the standard poor service or pay premium dollar for the Express service.

Australia Post asked for feedback after my recent parcel delivery - Boy! was that a mistake - 7 days from Sydney city to Brisbane city stinks!

I couriered a set of Porsche wheels I sold on ebay to a guy in Perth - rang him midday the next day to tell him I sent them, he said "Thanks - the arrived an hour ago"

wasn't there something in the news late last year about the postie no longer coming out 5 days a week to deliver mail... its only a couple days a week to save expense?

:(
