Australian offices never acknolwedge anything. It cuts out the work, man or lady, don't you see. It's true anti-service.

What are you on about and why did you drag up a 2yo thread to do it? Please enlighten us how we are to "cut out Australia Post". Go on, I am interested, as I'm sure plenty of others in Australia are. Australia has very strict quarantine laws for a very good reason. There are many things from Japan that are illegal here. Therefore, it is wise for you not to send it or customs will seize it. If you are upset that items you've sent to Australia haven't made it through customs, I suggest you read up on what can and can't be sent here, instead of blaming a postal company for doing their job.

How can a member in Japan speak with such authority about Australia Post?

I would like to debate some of your assertions....if I could understand what points you are trying to make.

this guy is also a good candidate for everyone's special list. "feedback left for others" is a joke. 

Too much sake on a boring Friday night?
