I do understand that and im sure it is true. Every parcel that comes into Australia through an overseas postal system ends up being a loss to them as it has to be delivered through Australia Post.

Even in saying that though they reported that have made $280 million profit last year which was an increase of 16% over there previous years profits and i am more than certain it would be due to the rise in Australian online businesses and in turn Australians buying from these business. You would think that they would want to support Australian business if it is helping profit the company rather than hurt it. I really hope it backfires on them.

I suppose at the end of the day the majority of sellers are all in the same boat, but it's not really a problem of us having to pay more, but it gives the buyer even more of a reason to buy from overseas sellers if we all have to increase our prices, meaning more loss for AP.

Australia Post just know that the majority of us are stuck using them so they think they can do whatever they want. I think it a very stupid decision.

The way i see it, what is hurting Australia Posts profits the most already is exactly what they are going to help aid due to the increase in prices.
