What about the weight - anyway you can get someone at AP to declare the weight which will prove no contents

I haven't found the policy for restricted items on managed payments yet.

 

But I did find this one.  Might be a help to point out their own policies to them.

 

  • Collectable alcohol containers may be sold, but must be empty.

Can't you just weigh it yourself on a scale and with a full can and then with the empty can and take a photo to see the difference in weight?

Hang on you'd need a scale for that wouldn't you haha

Thanks for the link Siddie.

 

Alcohol is restricted on MP.

 

After reading that link, I still think their policy re empty alcohol containers should stand.

A scale would be a must Smiley Tongue   but you could dummy up the image - if done at the PO that would be more authoritative I would think.

 

Or stick it on that other site, you know the koala food one
