    AUSPOST.....it doesn’t fit

    To date I’ve never have an issue with auspost, yeah I know it’s against the grain.

    One would think a 3kg, medium express post bag, would fit in the mail box.....apparently not. I’ll have to remember to stop at a post office along the road on Monday. It like doesn’t fit by 20mm. I even tried the red box next to it, same it doesn’t fit. The smaller package fitted.

    Oh well, it’ll get there.

    Just a warning, don’t assume your express post bag will fit it the box.

    A bloke with your skill sets and the right gear, shouldn't have a problem.

    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Weeds if it doesn't fit you are required to send it as a parcel. Been like that for years.
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    I nearly grabbed one out of the car.....thing is the finish size is the exact size of the bag and only 5mm think.

    No biggie.....I’ll just drop into auspost somewhere between Brisbane-Gymlie-Miles on Monday......although knowing me I’ll pull up on Miles and look a passenger seat and the parcel will still be sitting there.

    The past week just about every Christmas card the post man has delivered has been folded in half then stuck in the the slot so it is half in & half out. The slot is big enough for them to fit in unfolded & if they don't fit the whole front hinges up giving an opening of 200mm X 150mm & the box it's self is 300mm X 450mm X 400mm so can' t work out why , may be sick of delivering Christmas mail. Rang AP complaints & as usual waist of time. I have tried to catch him to ask why but he keeps coming at different times & I am usually out when he comes.

    NEVER PUT YELLOW EXPRESS BAGS IN A RED BOX! if you do then it will be lost in the system and take ages to get there.

    I wasted some time complaining about folded mail a few years back. They charge extra for something over a certain size, then fold it in half.
