I had a customer just buy an item.
Lives in WA (i'm in VIC)
Wanted me to post today so he can expect it to arrive the following Monday?! WTF!!!
I appreciate the quick payment and even if I was going to post them today (i'll try but no guarantees), it's IMPOSSIBLE to get them to WA the following Monday. Australia post doesn't deliver on weekends.
If I post them today they go to the sorting center and then out of the sorting into the truck on Monday. So it actually won't be out on the road until Monday.
Even if you lived in VIC and I post them with express today, then they MIGHT get to the address of Monday.
So unless AuPost invents the teleporter, I think his chances are NIL

I love the idea of teleporter :-x but bet the timeframe would then be based on how many minutes it took to get to them 😄

Because of the age of technology we live in I honestly believe some buyers expect the item to pop right out of the modem once payment is made.
Hey, how cool would that be ? Hi Cats 😛

Even with express If you or they live outside the guaranteed next day delivery area they won't get it the next business day.
Harder too from an area such as where I am which only has a once a day mail collection.If posted after the time of the local area collection it won't even leave our post office til that time the next day.
