Thread: Importing compound bow from USA

Correct and I'm in contact with a local, for bit's and bobs, and Ill be using him for everything, after this experience.

I know these delays are the fault of the virus, but I just can't stand the f**king lying

The main thrust of my rants above is that NZpost, which usually is an inefficient organisation, with delays in the order of a week or two, has been using marketing and lying to protect it's position when they should be telling us the truth and saying that they're not only snowed under but nearly comatose, nearly dead.

And yes, we own them, we pay their wages - "...1987, it has operated as a State Owned Enterprise (SOE) with the NZ Government as the 100% shareholder."


I found some tracking on an item 's source today, that shows that NZPost accepted my item in Auckland, on 12 April. 4 weeks, 5 days ago.


This is what they say ::

"We’re experiencing delivery delays of up to 5 working days We're seeing a significant increase in parcel volumes. While the majority of parcels are being delivered within 3 days, some parcel deliveries are delayed by up to 5 days. Deliveries into Auckland may be delayed by up to 10 days. To help us help you, please only contact us if our tracking tool shows it’s been more than 5 days (10 days in Auckland) since NZ Post received your parcel. We understand how important your parcels are to you and our team are working very hard to get them to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience as we do everything we can to keep things moving."

It should read ::

"We’re experiencing delivery delays of up to 35 or who knows? days. We're seeing a ginormous increase in parcel volumes. While the some of the parcels are being delivered soon-ish, some parcel deliveries are delayed by up to 35 or who knows? days. Deliveries into Auckland may be delayed by up to 35 or who knows? days. To help us help you, please only contact us if our tracking tool shows it’s been more than 35 or who knows? days ( who knows? days in Auckland) since NZ Post received your parcel. We understand how important your parcels are to you and our team are working very hard to get them to you as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience as we do everything we can to keep things moving. Oh and as far as we can tell, the parcel is not lost, but then, we won't know, until we get to the end of the huge great piles, that are gathering dust, in the warehouses out by the airport"
