Sometimes you just have to laugh.

Purchased an SD Card a few days ago.

Asked the seller when it might be posted.

Bear in mind this is a tiny object and it was to be sent ( free ) by ordinary post.

'Your order was sent promptly after payment was cleared.
However, it was damaged during transit by the courier and was returned back to us.
We have since dispatched a new one to you.
Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Is it just me or would others think this explanation a little odd.

weird

i wold think it would be delivered by the postie on his bike and just shoved in your mailbox

It depends...free post could mean they were sending it by a courier through their workplace...i.e. "free" post for them, so free ordinary post on your invoice...guess you won't know unless a courier delivers your replacement 🙂

Well it won't be coming through AP. They had no collections between 24 Dec and 29 Dec. Which would cover your few days. If they are in Australia.

But it a SD card and, from memory, you have a history of buying SD cards from overseas sellers that could never live up to the claimed specifications.

As those haven't been manufactured yet.

Is there a real question involved here?

Dave...

the only reason I purchased was this.... 

TAX INVOICE! AUSTRALIAN STOCK! AUSTRALIAN WARRANTY!

I don't buy electronics from overseas because the average Harvey Norman store is cheaper
( and easier to return items if necessary ).

My ebay purchase was made on impulse bought I sought out an Australian seller specifically.

This seller's excuse sounds like a croc to me.

Call me jaded...lol

'bought I sought out an Australian seller specifically'

should have read

'but I sought out an Australian seller specifically'

Why wouldn't you believe them? Obviously they have an extremely good ouija board so can pretrack all their items

A ouija board that pretracks deliveries ?

Half their luck. Mine only spits out lotto numbers.

You can post a SD card for $1.20!

[imastawka]

Nah.  SD cards are tiny.  Even with a bit of cardboard for protection

it would still post for 60c
