Just My Luck

[meganjane]

Crio Bru Australia ordered 100 of my Chocolate Kiss Lip Balms from me to use at the launch of Tenina's new book ( I think!). So excited, I was busy making lip balms and getting labels etc.
Posted them on February 1st and they haven't received them. 

I just can't believe my luck. This would have been fantastic exposure for me, now they don't have the lip balms for their welcome packages and I don't get the advertising. I've offered to send them another 100 for free, so I'll at least get the exposure, but at a huge financial loss. Australia Post, I HATE YOU!!

Oh MJ that's not bad luck but negligence by Australian Post.Can you make a claim against them to recoup the financial loss? You must be so mad and angry.

What a bummer MJ, a great opportunity missed through no fault of your own.

[dede]

Gee that would be so disappointing MJ. Hope they turn up tomorrow for you.

[meganjane]

Not likely DD, they should have been there last week. I didn't send them Registered Post, so no recompense.

😥 I'm sorry to hear about your bad luck. All the work you put into them would be so disappointing.

MJ,  I sent a parcel to England last Sept. And it didn't arrive.  Not Registered.  Australian Post said they could track it within Australia but not after that. If it isn't returned to me by 6 months from the date it was sent,  they would consider compensation.  Next time I will use DHL.

I feel for you MJ. I wonder where it went 😒

[faffa_70]

Hmm I am waiting for a parcel from the USA (a very expensive watch for my sons 21st - think 4 digits!!) Ordered and posted 3 weeks ago, the company can track it to Aus but there is nothing after that and Aussie Post don't want to know about it - YET ... cause I ain't finished with them YET.

MJ my heart breaks for you as I know the work you put into your products 

[Frozzie]

Oh mj thats horrible and all that missed exposure.. What is it with 2012...  Seems so much bad luck and horrible news... Feel for you after all the hard work and out of pocket... Grrrr

[ElleG]

So disappointing for you. Seems very unfair, I wonder where they are? I hate anything coming to my residence as Australia Post often puts other peoples mail in my letter box and I have seen streets where mail is lying on the road thanks to the locals.

That stinks MJ!.....what a shame they weren't registered    Hopefully they will magically  re-appear.

I hate Australia post too    especially the postie contracted to deliver to our area!  Have made sooooo many complaints....I am now cancelling my mail and collect it from the local shop everyday  shouldn't have to do that, but he's so unreliable!

Good luck Faffa.....I hope it turns up for you!
I had a specialty order of John Deere drawer knobs for my sons tall boys, shipped from U.S......they sent them twice, and both packages vanished in thin air!

MJ I feel for you. I also HATE Australia post. For us they have lost DD's Masters's degree (can't be found even though it was registered) a book from Amazon that wieghed about 2kg and was worth over $550, plus many more we know about and who knows what we don't know about. They really don't care. They say we will pass on your complaint but it is not the postie (most of the time) it's their systems.

MJ I do hope a miracle happens and they arrive. Perhaps today.

WoW cookie   ......makes you wonder, doesn't it!
Well I remember a little while ago, Melbourne had a big auction of all items that weren't collected, or deliverable....wonder if any of our missing stuff ended up there  
I know I have received other peoples packages, which i personally re-deliver.....but how many people would open and keep them?

A few years ago, a local postie around here was charged with possessing a shed full of mail and parcels.....maybe my drawer knobs ended up there  

They say we will pass on your complaint but it is not the postie (most of the time) it's their systems.

Here, it's the postie!.....my neighbour cancelled all her mail deliveries before Christmas (because of his constant mistakes), and last week my neighbour happened to check her letterbox out of curiosity.....and sure enough, my mail sitting in her box.....2 party invites (1 was for in 2 days time, 1 had already been past), a cheque and bills

I don't know if you ever saw that tv report where the postie would put a bag of mail behind bushes while he delivered another bag?
