AUSTRALIA POST SUCKS
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.
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.

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"
