Postage Q&A
Q: What happen when the Poslaju postman comes when you're not at home?
A: They will send you a card asking you to self collect at their Poslaju branch (a map is provided for reference). (4) You may also call them to resend it. (8)

does this also applies to PosEkspress?

PosDaftar is similar to normal shipping where u hav 2 weigh & then get stamps. Just that u need get the sticker for xtra RM 1.70. So, in short, the rate depends on weight

PosEkspres doesnt require signatures so the posmen 'll just put inside mailbox or throw over into ur home compound

i just went to post something using post laju, very very expensive

they now kira like this:

panjang. length (cm) x lebar. width (cm) x tinggi. height (cm) then finally devide by 6000 = your post laju weight

i only post something for 1.5KG, but according to the post malaysia calculation above, my stuff is 5.148KG, it cost me RM29.40 !

yeah.. just now me also kena like that.. damm..

QUOTE(bombman @ Sep 15 2006, 12:51 AM)

Hi all!

I just want to inquire, if I'm shipping somethin small (eg. RAM) would it be cheaper to send by POSTLAJU or private courrier companies? What would the approximate cost be? Would it depend on the size of the box I ship it in? Which would be the safer alternative?

Thanks!

PosEkspres 'll b cheapest. Get the box type

PosLaju 'll cost slightly more but faster

It's only cheap via courier companies if u hav account w/ them (means u need register & hav own company)

Q: Does Poslaju require a signature for all the mail/package no matter what size is it?
A: The new Pos laju form requires you to tick either "Document" or "Non-document". If you tick non-document, then you may have to declare its contents and sign it off too. (11, 12)

Even if you declare it as non-document, most of the post office only charge for documents rate which is RM4.73 for below 0.5 kg. Recently i quoted a buyer for shipment charges for 100 pcs LED's with in Peninsular Malaysia. The seller referring to poslaju webpage where shipment for parcel is charged at RM8.00 for below 0.5kg . Should I pay RM 8 or RM 5?
