Ya, we already discussed about this matter above there.
Luckily it's only RM 0.45 for all sizes, not 10% from the total amount

Some of them never bothered to weigh.
Like my case, I posted quite a few times from PD post office when I go back my hometown during the weekends, my items were crystal casings and screen protector, the man will just write the weight as 0.01kg without weighing though the things are light but definitely more than 0.01kg.
I was thinking his hand is a weigh is it?

There is this lady in MMU, she'll come over here to work.. I think one day in a week, I'll try to peek.. If she's around, I won't post my thing on that day. She's so damn troublesome, she will take out the flexible measurement tape to measure the volume of my parcel and multiply with the weight.. Wow! Though we know that's the exact way, but can't she be a bit lenient like the nice uncle?

And bearbear, thanks for the information. So, different size different fuel surcharge, not fixed at RM 0.45.
Btw, it's parcel not pascal. You think too much of Blaise Pascal is it?

Ya, my parcels are always charged based on the weight, only once being charged by the proper way. Hopefully no more after this.

Yea, it's parcel .

Errm. Ay least not in my area, send to other city or state still stays at RM 4.73, just add RM 0.45 as fuel surcharge. Not until that much like you encountered. That's too much.

So, in short Pos Malaysia doesn't have a standardized measurement for its parcels.

Like my case, the lady in MMU will measure according to the volumentric weight formula while the nice uncle will use the normal document rate.

Tomorrow I'll post a box, pray hard that lady is not there. I need to post it urgently.

Went and posted my thing today.. In a box with 370g, the nice uncle was there. So, RM 4.73+RM 0.45 = RM 5.18. That's all.

It's still a link from www.pos.com.my
This is the link to track and trace, http://www.pos.com.my/v1/?c=/v1/TrackTrace/MainTrack.htm
Then, select Poslaju.
Hope this helps.


p/s: Oh ya, sometimes the server is down.

Yes, that is the format, no spacing in between.
Don't expect so much from it, because sometime it will state "Not in Records".
Don't be worried, it will be updated in shortly.

I used once Pos Daftar and the thing reached me after 2 weeks
poslaju 1 day can reach or 2 days maximum.

Most of the sellers here use Poslaju. Pos Daftar is cheap but it looks not safe.
If use Poslaju, one day can reach Ipoh or Penang from KL.

In my case, I request for my buyers to transfer the payments first, then only I will send the items to them.

You need to pack yourself, those people won't bother to pack for you.

The another 10% is fuel surcharge (Caj bahan api)
I've highlighted about this matter in March, it was implemented that time.
You can refer to our discussion here

I have posted the calculation on another thread and I think this is what you were looking for.
Hope it helps.

One working day. Today send, tomorrow receive; provided the next day is working day.

It will come tomorrow, yesterday was off day for them, first Saturday of the month.
Their tracking system is not good, always call them 1300-300-300, from 8.30am - 5pm.

No problem.

Yes, a lot. Until the postmen and officers know me already.

Motherboard in a RM 4 Pos Ekspres envelope?
I hope the recipient will receive it in one piece.

Or did you apply any protection to it before got it posted? It is not appropriate to post such sensitive items using Pos Ekspres envlopes.

PMB Parcel Deliveries are Pos Berdaftar? Is the tracking no. begins with RD?

I have bad experience with Pos Berdaftar, took me 10 days waiting for my item from KL to Malacca. Due to that unfortunate incident, I rather spend some bucks and opt for Poslaju or worse comes to worst, Pos Ekspres.

But only available at post offices that have Poslaju center a.k.a. Pusat Poslaju.
