Since Australia Post claim no responsibility for items that are are Safe Dropped and then damaged or stolen, I recently decided to make all my sales "signature on delivery" to prevent them being "safe dropped"

 

Now I dscover that the buyer can override this and ask for the parcel to be safe dropped regardless.


   And in fact I do have this arrangement with my postal service - I live in a rural area, that is very safe, and I have authorised them to leave my parcels in a designated area.   I would be very ****** off if I had to drive to town to collect my parcel, just because the seller has decided to send it 'signature on delivery'.
