I just want to make a post praising Australia Post.

Seriously, their postage within Australia is relatively fast and i have never had something lost.

Yeah, I'll +1 this.

I bought some stuff last Friday afternoon, around 3pm. Was not expecting it until mid this week. It arrived on MONDAY morning! Didn't pay for express postage or anything, just unbelievably fast.

The only complaint I have against AusPost comes from many years ago, when my then-girlfriend sent me a letter from rural NSW, and I received it three months later, after we had broken up. =_=

Lols. Postage is a funny thing sometimes.

When I was in London with my gf, I sent out a postcard home, just for lols. She sent one to her family who were in Portugal.

The postcard arrived here in Melbourne before it reached Portugal, and even then, that took about 4 weeks. Preeeeeeeetty sure Portugal is closer to London then Melbourne is, well, last time I checked anyway.

Most postage issues seem to come from cheap international postage (usually when it's free). Stuff from Hong Kong tends to risk being lost before it gets here, and super cheap postage from the UK sometimes takes forever.

I once ordered an item on Thursday night from Japan, I got it it the following Monday. I was more shocked because it was a public holiday. Some Asian man on a bike delivered it.

speaking of japan.. i ordered some stuff from a hong kong site last night which had the option of Express Mail Service for only $3.85.. no joke i bought like $68 worth of stuff which was quite big actually.. very surprised they offered that at such a low price.. and they had UPS for $11.. [MOG]

What happens if the postie crams my package into the mailbox, and the electronics are damaged by the rain?

It hasn't happened, but I'm half-expecting it to because of the torrential showers we've been getting lately.
