New Postage Rates coming inot effect 4th January....

[lady_and_the_tramp]

Just curious and hope someone can answer for me, with the new rates due to take effect 4th January '16, if posting something via large letter rate say for example now would require 2 x 70c Stamps = $1.40 cause it is under the 125g weight, would the new rates then be 2 x $1 stamps = $2.00 for the slower delivery method & if requiring the faster 2 day delivery rate mean adding 2 x 50c prority stamps making the total $3.00  ?  In other words it would be 1 prority stamp added for each $1 stamp?  Hope that makes sense.....and do we just make new postage policies to reflect the new rates so buyers have a choice when making their purchase?

Thanks

If you use Bx1 AP boxes ($1.75 in singles, less in 20 or more) the postage using eBay labels ONLY is $7.15.

These boxes, through eBay, are good for 1kg. The box itself weighs about 120g.

The only REAL bargain the eBay postage system provides.

Use a courier - they nearly all offer a 1kg satchel

AP tried it for a one month and then stopped.

(I think they lost heaps as people deserted 3kg satchels; I know I posted lots less at 3kg).

Despite searching, I just can't find the info on new price increases on Aust Post website.... I can only find proposed prices.  My post office doesn't have anything in writing either

Does anyone have a link to AP price increases for 4 Jan?

many thanks

The proposed prices ARE the new prices, they just haven't removed the word Proposed from the website yet.  ACCC gave them the nod last week of November.
