Domestic parcels

    Prepaid Parcel Post Plus 500g, 3kg and 5kg satchels will increase by an average of $1 per satchel.
    Prepaid Express Post 3kg satchels will increase by an average 6.9% or 90 cents per satchel. All other domestic Express Post satchels prices are unchanged.
    From 22 October 2012 the published delivery standards for domestic regular parcels (Parcel Post and over the counter assessed parcels) will be changing with the addition of one extra day to the delivery standards. For example, the current delivery standard for regular parcels from Sydney to Melbourne is 2 days. This will change to a range of 2-3 days.

So, not just a price increase, but also longer expected delivery times!  

No word yet on whether the prices for Flat rate boxes or eBay satchels will increase.

farout wheelsy they were already over the top expensicve imo before now this, makes it very hard to compete its almost cheaper in books for people to purchase them from os and have them sent here with our rates the way they are, especially the international but even the local now, there is no justification for this imo
