let me explain some parts of the law

a lot of posters keep thinking that if its written in the law ,thats it.  well wrong ,ask any solicitor.

if that was the case we would not need any courts.

a law is written for instance law 1.   then there is only if  a  or   f   or section  bla , does not ocur.

lets talk about photos in a post office, once you hand over your letters and as soon as the postman stamps them ,they are deemed to be the property of the federal gov. once you touch or take a photo ,then theres privacy laws.  its simple its not yours anymore.

we also have posters complaining about paypal taking money out of your account when there is a problem.

read your contract with them , you agreed to there policy  ,if you dont agree dont sign up or take the contract to a solicitor. 

just because something is said in the law , companies have agreements with them  .  like the bank on charge backs  the law states a bank cant take money out of another banks client.  but the banks have an agreement that allows that.  and we all know that happens.

look at the law about porn movies , i still have had nobody answere that.  its simple the law states porn movies can only be sold in canberra.    have a look around  most suburbs have an adult shop.   i would say there is an agreement with the law.  these shops are not hidden , some are the size of small supermarkets.

in fact a couple of months ago i won an auction on ebay for some new steel paint tins and lids , when she gave me the pick up details  it was to an adult bookstore , i then looked at the  item number  in case i bid on the wrong line, but all correct. anyway i drive to the loading bay ,she opened up the roller door and my eyes nearly popped out , as i was loading the boxes , i did not ask why they had new empty paint tins , but i did ask why the girl on the corner wearing  just underwear was smiling at me ,she said thats a blow up doll , yes but whats her name.     lol

I'm talking about the efforts one can make to avoid problems, whether a car accident or a difficult human being ....... intimidation towards another person can have a life long effect, so I don't make any assumptions about what is the more serious situation.

I completely agree with (crow333crow). 

The forums are supposed to be for people having legitimate topics and questions.

some of us use them irregularly and receive anything from insults, Seller product criticism and sarcasm to just plain rude unhelpful B.S.

try asking canbe you the person you gave kutos to who has only been on ebay for 1 day who has never brought or sold on ebay ,who has agreed to terms and conditions on ebay , but dont worry why dont you also read the sopose lawer on ebay posting what was his namwe again,mr bearded one thats his id. and he will explain to you about for a start picking up goods from any seller. which one do you agree on mr beardedone or canbe ??????????????? only 1 can be right. stick to what you know [oranges]

 

 

Firstly, joe, it's not up to others to substantiate claims that you make.

 

You made the claims, I think it is incumbent upon you to back them up.  Who I give kudos to has nothing to do with what I was seeking from you.

 

Furthermore, if you are now endorsing canbe4 on matters legal (by directing me to ask them my question) then you can't have it both ways by trying to discredit them because of their registration history.  Additionally, as pointed out by you earlier this year, when you stated that you had been on these boards longer than padi, the date you refer to for canbe4 is only the registration date for that eBay ID.  Whether canbe4 has a buying or selling history and the extent of that history is pure conjecture and only a distraction from the question I asked you.

 

Also, don't try to confuse the issue by asking about pickup items, I only asked for one thing from you . . . . to back up the statements you made regarding ownership of lodged post-stamped articles.  If it is too hard then just say so, if you don't know where you read it just say so.  Doing so will be more credible than deflecting and distracting from the question.

 

Finally joe, even though I have posted here to try to remain focused on trying to get an answer from you regarding the lodgement statements you have made, I can't let your "stick to what you know [oranges]" comment go with asking what it is you hope to achieve by including such a juvenile comment like that?  You started a thread for members to discuss and then you revert to this kind of BS.  If you want members to take you seriously then cut out the personal attacks and start acting like an adult.

Australian Postal Law is quite clear on the matter. Copy below.

Rule 101  Articles carried by post to be taken to be Australia Postโ€™s property

Quote

For the purpose of any legal proceeding or action in relation to an article carried by post or under the control of Australia Post, the article shall be taken to be, while it is being carried by post or under the control of Australia Post, the property of Australia Post.

In Australia, the seller is not legally responsible for delivery, only postage, therefore proof of postage is what is required.


Thank you queenslander.  I read that in the thread you started earlier this year.  Now I know where joe got part of his information.

 

HOWEVER, taken in context, I do not believe that this information supports joe's statements. 

 

What you have quoted from is the Australia Post Corporation Act 1989.  This act does not appear to deal with the ins and outs of the day-to-day operating practices of Australia Post and, as pointed out by another poster earlier today, Rule 101 in context refers to "for the purpose of any legal proceeding or action".  If Rule 101 was dealing with day-to-day operations one would expect it to be surrounded by a multitude of other 'rules' regarding posting and lodgment of articles and not tucked away in the "Miscellaneous" section of the act.

 

Here's a screengrab showing Rule 100, 101 and 102 that are bundled under the heading of "Miscellaneous" in the act.

There is no continuity of subject matter with these rules.

 

 

joe,

 

even if Rule 101 was applied to the day-to-day operations of Aust Post I think it is a bit of a stretch to now try to use Rule 101 of this act as evidence that it is against the law to photograph or even touch a post-stamped article at time of lodgement.

 

I can also understand privacy concerns of photographing articles that have nothing to an individual, but when you posted:

. . . . . . . . if you had an item sent to me joethenuts with my address on it. who is allowed to see for instance where i live , not you its there property.

 

that just doesn't make sense in the discussion about sellers photographing post-stamped articles.  I mean, now you are saying that the seller, the person who addresses the item to you, someone who knows your address, is not even allowed to see the addressed item as it is now owned by Aust Post.

 

As far as photographing the article addressed to you goes, there are no privacy issues unless the seller uses the photos in a way that breaches your privacy, like uploading them (or links to them) to a public forum. 

 

An example of breach of privacy laws would be if a seller was to upload courier connote numbers that let anybody see their buyer's Name, Address, Phone number and Signature . . . . . . now that would be a privacy law breach worthy of further discussion.

Re: let me explain some parts of the law

I don't believe that the PO could ever claim ownership of any of the mail that they deliver.  The PO is contracted by the seller (who pays for the service) to deliver the item to the buyer who has paid for it.
