"And as far as Australia Post goes, there's only 1 week left to get this debacle sorted, so it has to be escalated to the highest levels in government, the ACCC, the Postal Ombudsman, A Current Affair, anywhere that this can get enough publicity to force a reversal of their decision that’s been orchestrated hand-in-hand with eBay."

ebay and auspost are joining forces to create a duopoly .. it already has the blessing of the ACCC .. they are basically closing the door to any opposition gaining traction to compete against them .. ebay is now “incentivising” sellers to use auspost exclusively so as to negate the 10% feegrab on postage .. ebay click and send is being discontinued and we will now need to pay for our postage label via  ebay checkout to get the ebay click and send rates .. sinister is not the word for it .. it goes completely beyond the pail of what is acceptable business practice but the ACCC is onboard and auspost is being poised for selloff to private interests with lobbyists and other business interests imploring the government to sell it off even though it generates 200 Million + per year in revenue for the government .. auspost executives have cleverly 100% bought out startrack express and will no doubt spin that off to an insider in the not too distant future once the appropriate contracts have been awarded to it so that it becomes the exclusive carrier for the new post selloff auspost .. just get used to the idea of being squeezed and squeezed and squeezed and forget the notion of making any profit for effort as the only worthy ones are the corporate tax dodgers and those smart enough to outwit the public via monopoly practices .. all done with the blessing of the ACCC ..

 

Good luck but obviously the time is fast approaching when we need to find alternatives of cop it sweet .. doubtful that fighting the decisions of greedy business people with friends in high places is going to amount to anything .. I feel that when dealing with people of low morality and ethics if you are too successsful in disrupting their plans they may take a personal interest in you ..
