Just to clarify so all understand like I do now.

I purchased 4 quilt cover sets and the combined postage amount was $25.95 - no problems. But when I received the package, I noticed it was in a 3kg express post satchel which I know doesn't cost as much as I''d paid so I queried it with the seller.

I've been told and have confirmed that prepaid satchels express post 3kg max weight come in more than one size. The size that the AP website has priced at $14.80 is the small size.

In order for the 4 quilt cover sets to fit in the satchel, the seller had to use the jumbo size which still has a max weight limit of 3kg but costs more.

As jenmanchester said in #15, the goods should've weighed more than 3kg (something I didn't check) so the seller was lucky to get away with using the 3kg bag at all.

In response to rkwm888 in #21 - yes I agreed to pay the $25.95 postage costs BUT you don't know how the seller is packaging it or posting it until it arrives so I have every right to question the charges if I think I have been ripped off once I receive the goods.

In a recent transaction a seller charged me a combined postage amount of $7.80 for 2 DVD's and when I received them the amount of postage paid was only $3.00.

A lot of sellers these days are overcharging with on postage to put a couple of extra bucks in their pockets and I'm not playing that game.
