BTY I don't believe NZ Post actually runs the service. I am fairly sure it is a huge international company called OIA Global that provides the service to NZ Post. Oz Post has exactly the same service (called Postmate) from exactly the same address - same format of a number prefixing your name etc. Here is what the Ockers think of it.

Pretty well sums up what I think of YS after my little "dangerous goods" experience.

They never used to combine the value in the past as I followed the same process I had used before. They obviously changed their rules. The two packages had hunting knives in them and the numb nuts classified one shipment as a restricted item and wouldn't ship it. Had to go through the hoops to get it released. Won't be using them again.
