Seller lists shipping option as "Express Post (courier)" - takes 7 business days to arrive?

Hi I recently brought an item from a seller listed as Adelaide, brought and paid am of 2/2/15.. Only shipping option offered is "Express Post (courier)". I purchase and then query 5 business days later where my item is. I am within Sydney NSW metro area. The response I got was that he allows 2 days for handling and then despatch. How on earth can this be considered "Express". Seller feels it is "right on time" that it took from 2/2 to 10/2 to arrive. Had Aust Post Express been offered I could have had it the next day, or at the most 2 days later. 

 

Am I unjustified to expect that if you are offering an "Express" option that a buyer can expect same day despatch (obviously being reasonable ie items purchased after business hours would leave the following day)?

In his listing does he state the handling time?

Does it say posts same day or does it show a 2 day handling time?
