Australia post put ants inside the package!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ozgizmoz-au]

I got this message froma buyer today

"I received my order today thank you, but inside the package it was full of ants, which ended up all over the floor and was a pain to clean, can you please tell me why I shouldn't leave negative feedback?"

**bleep**!? why is ants inside the packages??

All I could do is give this guy a refund.

Australia post has fail me again.

What NEXT!?

Did the parcel have any type of food in it? Seems strange the ants would stick around for long, if there was no food in there.

If they leave you a neg reply with a comment about the buyer being extremely ungrateful that you sent them bonus items at no extra cost lol. (please note the comment was made tongue in cheek so don't take me to task for telling somebody to do something so unprofessional. Last time I made a flipant comment like that somebody took me to task for giving such silly advice. I thought of listing a sense of humour and sending the poster a link)

I would send them an apology, tell them you have no idea how the ants could have been there and in future make sure you put everything in ziplock bags or similar so at least the goods themselves will be safe.

Be polite when you reply to the buyer. You don't want to antagonise them.

They might get very antsy if you do.

It's true. People dump all sorts of fun stuff in those red postage boxes. When I was working in Canberra, there was a coffee shop with some sort of vendetta against AusPost and it would dump its coffee grounds in the same red box every day until AusPost removed it...

Ask him to check his mailbox too, I have ants in mine, it's quite frustrating! Just another reason I have a PO Box, but occasionally we still get letters to the house.

it wasn't your falut the ants were in there  and threatening to leave you a negative that's wrong
