How do sellers ship for so cheap in Australia ???

[99office]

How do so many Australian sellers ship for so cheap? They sell items that will not fit in a letter (thicker than 20mm) for way cheaper than the cheapest Australia post contract parcel rates.

For example, search ebay for "USB car charger", select "Australia Only" in location, and there are heaps of people selling chargers (including shipping) between $2.50 and $4.00. HOW DO THEY DO IT?? Do they just sent it in a letter, and hope no one checks it is thicker than 20mm? All those items are way thicker than 20mm

If you must drag up a 6 year old thread at least add something of value to the discussion.

However, I doubt that there is any more to add on this topic after all this time.

Please let this thread rest in peace. It's had its time.

If you had read this thread you would have noticed several things.

It is six years old; there were many suggestions as to why postage could be so cheap; you didn't add anything to the discussion.
