Do we know how delayed Aust Post is with their deliveries?
I've had several domestic deliveries over the past could of weeks. All of them arrived in their normal timeframe.
WA deliveries seem to be the ones affected. Given your Premier is isolating the state, there's likely delays at the border.
Go WA!! Tracking says it has not even left the post office I submitted to :(
Well tracking says it finally arrived. Confident to keep posting more items :)
I’m waiting on a tonne of stuff from over East. All delayed. Seems to be taking close to 2 weeks to recieve them. Been taking a week to get deliveries from 3 suburbs away as well. Unsure if it’s a border issue or just the surge in online shopping.
I got something from Melbourne yesterday - it took the usual time, 6 days, but it came as a padded envelope with the regular post (not a parcel van) if that makes any difference. I also bought something from Target online on Monday and it shipped today from Bullcreek (about 48 hours processing). I'll see how long it takes.
I spoke to my local postie recently - he told me that NSW distribution centres have been overwhelmed.
I haven't noticed any delays with domestic parcels via Australia Post so far. Single parcel from overseas arrived within normal timeframe, fortunately.
I'm waiting on a parcel from Victoria sent 2 weeks ago. Post to WA must be delayed. Usually takes 1 week.
Checking the Japan Post website, it APPEARS that EMS and Air Mail from Japan to Australia is now blocked as of the 10th, although the English version of blocked countries list isn't available.
I've had two items that tracking says never left Japan even before the 10th, so I might not be getting them.
Ordered Siege Jetfire locally no problems. Tried ordering Siege bluestreak from Taiwan that was cancelled the next day so I've ordered it from Amazon instead.
My DHL parcel from Amazon is ‘ON HOLD’ in Singapore. Still no sign of my 13 Aust Post parcels.
I've got a couple of those Duck Camo MP-10s that atmos shipped on the 1st April by Japan EMS that has not yet arrived. The tracking hasn't updated either so I'm not sure it's even left Japan yet. Have messaged Aus Post.
My Target parcel took 2.5 working days within Perth.
Ditto. From everywhere I can gather, the items are stuck in Japan, either at the Post Office or the "Outward office of exchange". This is effecting packages from Japan going anywhere, but especially bad for Australia now that we are official on the "no EMS" list*. Likely will be sent back to sender or sit for a long time where they are. Doubtful Aus Post can do much if its still in Japan.

Yeh another member and I were discussing this on the weekend. The thing is this was only effective on the 10th whereas mine were posted on the 1st so you would have thought mine should have snuck through. But perhaps there was a lack of planes moving freight at that point and they got held up.
If they get returned to the sender then I'm concerned atmos will cancel the orders.
Mine were 4th at 8th. Also stuck. The issue is, even with the Japan Post order being the 10th, most (all?) flights from Japan stopped coming to Australia long before that. From what I can gather, EMS usually hitches a ride on normal passenger flights. No passenger flights, no EMS mail. Even if there WERE flights from Japan to Australia still, thy'd be extremely limited and probably prioritised.
Amiami is supposedly resending items via DHL at their own cost. But that is still reliant on the package being returned to point of origin.
Basically... I doubt we are getting our items. And probably a wait on getting money back.
I have a consolidated package with Buyee which didn't make it out in time before the restrictions and was returned. I asked them if they were willing to suspend any future storage fees since a lot of proxies are doing it now, but no I am required to choose another method to send it, either DHL which is almost two times cost of what EMS was for that size, or Sea Mail.
(T_T) やれやれ・・・ :(

I wonder if there's a delay on DHL between Singapore an Australia? My Seacons from OMP have been sitting a DHL facility in Singapore for a week.
At this stage my Transformers hobby has to go on hold -- I have the money to purchase many things, but there is just no shipment options to New Zealand since there are no planes flying here; and with the boarder on lock down until "who knows when, I am not really sure that I want to be purchasing things just to have them sitting in a warehouse for .. 6...12...18 months. I'll probably end up missing quite a few items over the next year or more ...
If its not digital in 2020/21, then I am probably not going to be able to get it ..
Forgot I also had Wave 3 of the Seacons shipped on 26 March from Robot Kingdom. The last update (1st April) on Auspost says "International departure - enroute to Australia". Will put an enquiry on that one too.

Delays are expected including america (im expecting earthrise prime from tfsource) which is expected a delay up to 2-3 weeks
Worth it to check the source tracking too. If you have an entry about loading to a flight, then chances are it's not been scanned yet. I have TfSafari items still on their way, and both had a month MIA from Shanghai airport before they were scanned again domestically.
I am using the 17Track app as well as Auspost's, for intl items. 17Track shows both sets of tracking events.
Thanks for that, the RK one just says enquiry lodged. Unfortunately I checked the Japan Post tracking again and both of my packages have been returned to atmos. The other member had their order cancelled by atmos so I expect the same outcome. Which puts me back at square one. :(
My UPS parcel from Amazon AU via US arrived yesterday. About 10 days which is quicker than ever before. Also a DHL parcel from the same order is at a Perth sorting facility so should get it Monday. Approx 2 weeks quicker than S.A to W.A via Aust Post.:rolleyes:
Hi guys, I've waiting on a parcel that Australia Post received on the 27th March going from Melbourne to Perth. No updates apart from the 'We've got it' on the 27th. Would you consider the parcel as lost or should I wait another week?
Cheers
I have about 4 like that. 3 from S.A. And 1 from Melbourne from Popcultcha dated 27th March which is concerning as I have already recieved some parcels from Popcultcha that I ordered after this one. I have contacted them and they opened a Aust Post enquiry. As for the 3 S.A ones, I’ve heard that they sometimes don’t scan them as it saves them time. I’m giving them til end of next week.
Recieved my parcel today! Just over 3 weeks for delivery, just happy it wasn't lost.
Update to my order from Mandarake in Japan. Got an email today saying my package was returned to them and they are happy to resend it DHL at no extra cost, or hold and ship by SAL later on if I wish. Needless to say, I chose the former option. Very stoked with this outcome!
