That makes me feel much better .... I had a message yesterday which read ..... "Did you really send it, cos it's not here yet - please check if you really sent it".   That was a letter post mailed on 20th from Hobart to NSW.  I explained that I don't send the postage notification until AFTER it has been posted and haven't heard back.

On the other hand, I posted a 5kg satchel to  Victoria on Friday18th ... checked the tracking on the following Wed ....BUT  it had already been delivered on the Monday 21st !!  

The same as your experience crow, I can't work out how they operate.

I've found in a lot of cases that satchels arrive quicker than large letters and parcels. One example is, 3 days to Mackay from rural NSW as opposed to 8 days to the same buyer with a regular parcel. I'm tempted to start using satchels to some locations for that reason.
