Mail from UK to Australia
Hey Guys,
I got a package in the post today (Sydney, AU) that was posted last week from the UK. A pretty quick delivery yet another package I got today was also from the UK yet was posted in November (and presumed lost). Just wondering if anyone else has experienced such inconsistent delivery times between UK and Australia? The 6 months one isn't a record for me - it once took 9 months for a package to arrive from the UK via airmail. Mick

Yes, I have had a lot of inconsistency over the past few months. Two badges appear to have gone missing (I am hoping they will surface some time), one badge was here in 7 days and the rest have taken 14 days.

Hi Mick
Not just Sydney - UK. I have previously posted 2 packets from France to the UK on the same day one took 3 days, and other took 5 weeks.... Not sure where these items spend their time. Cheers, Tim |

Don’t really know how long postage takes to Australia but I have been waiting for one package to travel from one side of England to the other....so far I have been waiting 4 weeks. Could have walked there and back several times. In fact I wish I had walked there to collect it in person.

My mail ex UK usually takes 1 to 2 weeks but most goes to a PO box and I usually only clear that on a Thursday. I have had 2 small packages opened by Aussie customs and also biodiversity, I don't know what their interest in metal badges might be, but I got a sword through in a big shipping tube without any inspection, so don't ask me.
Regards Phil. |
