In 48 hours, my parcel has managed a little under 20km and hasn’t actually left Sydney yet. I was sorta hoping to get the goods by the weekend. I’ll be lucky to get them in March. According to the same tracking page: “This parcel is on time. Expected to arrive Mon 30 – Tue 31 Mar”.

I can get parcels from Hong Kong, including customs clearance quicker than this. 😢

    Meanwhile I just got a pair of running shoes delivered to me in Adelaide from Brisbane within 24 hours of ordering, despite not even paying for the express post option. I feel like I stole your delivery luck!

    I sent exactly one parcel through Australia Post and it was weirdly routed via Arundel, QLD to get from Sydney to Wagga Wagga. Maybe that’s just balancing the load across different distribution centres but it’s still weird. Added like another week of travel time.
