Hi Everybody,
Just wondering if anyone out there can give us in the MyPost Business world an example of the eParcel rates(both Standard and Express) they are currently getting and volume they are sending to get this rate.
As I would like to possibly use it instead of MyPost, but would like to know if it really is worth the benefit.
Thanks to All.
Omahkulo.

For starters, MyPost is under 2000 and eParcel is over 2000 per year and discounts calculated on volume like MyPost. The discount was not much better at the 2000 mark compared to MyPost and we struggled to make the cut and now use MyPost.
You have a nice store and lots of interesting items. We are about to trial Express Post prepaid DL and C5 envelopes for goods under 20mm thick instead of MyPost, the document only criteria appears to of been removed. Tracked envelopes have really helped reduce our postage costs.

I can't see where the "documents only" requirement has been removed??

I just had a look at the AP site for Express Post envelopes & it looks like documents are NOT the only things that can now be sent be the Express Post envelopes...

2 Rigid or inflexible items such keys, pens, USBs or CDs should never be sent in a regular paper envelope as they could easily be damaged by our sorting equipment or torn from the envelope and lost. Items like these should always be packaged correctly and sent as a parcel. View our packaging hints and tips and domestic parcels

The latest price guide says documents only
The 'rigid or inflexible' statement has been there for as long as I can remember

Legally, you cannot send items in the Express envelopes. You can in the normal envelopes, though.
