I tried to Edit the message but I ran out of time Soorry Guys and Gals..

C&S wanted me to Pay $12.40 to an Address in My State SA I did a check on AP Calculater and it was only $8.95 The parcel was 27cm Long 23cm Wide and 16 cm Deep. and weighs 950 grams. I had the option to pay with Paypal or Visa or Go to the PO I went to the PO and Paid there $8.95 Now I have 2 Tracking Numbers. Why did C &S want to charge me $12.40?

PS Both Tracking Numbers are Valid

No idea. I only use C&S for flat-rate eBay satchels and flat-rate boxes.

Did you select own packaging?

Re: Just Used Click And SEnd For THe First Time And Not Happy............

crowsman53 — Fri, 27 Dec 2013 07:56:14 GMT

Yes I selected my own packaging which was the only option I had.

If you selected own packaging, then you should not be able to pay online and & have to take it to the PO.

Online payment is only available for flat rate satchels & boxes.

With the two different tracking numbers, then PO has not processed the item correctly, as the number on the
postage label should match the C&S one.

Hi Barrie not having a go at you but I checked with AP Website both Tracking number are stated as being lodged at W##### Post Office and by paying at the PO I saved $3.45. Whats the difference to using C&S satchels or your own packaging. I have 40 of their 3kg bags here can pack a 1kg item and put it in one of their bags but why bother if they are going to charge $12.40 within your own state when the local post office will only charge $8.95

I can answer that one. A 3kg satchel is a flat price Australia wide. And postage is $11.70 plus satchel cost. Which may be more than short distance postage, but is way less than other side of the country. And what is 3kg to around the corner?

Use what works. But understand what you are using.

And it is not within your own state, it is within 50km. Try sending to the other side of your state, even Tasmania, and see what the costs are.

Hi, Paddy, this was an issue sometime back where C&S generates a tracking number which is automatically uploaded to ebay item, when the second number is generated when you pay at the PO this number is not uploaded,

and this was the number that was being scanned in (as the PO staff were sticking the postage label over the C&S barcode) and was not linked to C&S and Ebay.
What they have done is to process it as Parcel Post and not under C&S section, where, when the C&S barcode
is scanned in it will then generate a matching barcode/tracking number on your postage sticker.
Thus avoiding potential problems.

The 3kg C&S satchels are $11.70 and yes it is cheaper to send within your own state using your own packaging.
The satchels & boxes are a flat rate Australia wide, and is usually cheaper for most destinations.

You need to put the satchel (or box) code in the promotion box. It is 39712 for 500g satchels. Mouse over the question mark next to the box and it will give you the codes. Then click apply.

When you choose your own packaging size it does not matter what price click and send gives you.

My registered click and send is in a country zone but i post from a city zone and when i print off the labels for my own packed items it always comes up with a price for my address, in the country zone

but

as you do not pay until you get to the post office it does not matter. The post office you go to will always weigh and/or measure and give you the correct price

If you are ony printing off labels to pack items to take to the post office and not paying online, dont stress.
