Think of this.
If a seller in Hong Kong ships something below 500gms to AU they can do for around .60c or less (without tracking) or $2.25 (with tracking) in AU its a minimum of $7.15 (from next week) (without tracking) $10.10 (with tracking). there is a seller 3 offices down from someone I know over there that ships a minimum of 1000 packages a day to AU without tracking costs them around $600AUD … same volume by an AU seller would cost $7150 + we paid GST and tax on the sale price … not hard to work out where one should be as an eBay seller … and that doesn’t even factor the eBay fees. They pay almost nothing over there.:-(
Add to all this the fact that Aus Post refuse to negotiate a better deal for us under the UPI/ Union. (Int Postal Agreement)
If the CEO of Aus Post got off his overpaid ass and did the right thing by Australians and got a better deal for the people he is supposed to represent (us) our postage prices could drop by 1/2. Not continually rise out of control.
But he is more interested in doing it the easy way, so he can reap those huge BONUSES he gets.
Shame on Australia Post. SHAME.
Again I urge everyone to show Australia Post how we feel. If we do nothing we will all pay for it in the end. By going out of business.
Sign the petition against these ludicrous price hikes.
What hope do we have here now with these latest price hikes.
