Not recommended .

PosLaju is better .

Thanks for reply

A seller sent a package to me using pos ekspres yesterday.
I tried to track the package and I got this:

21 Aug 2009 5:09:32 PM PUSAT MEL KUALA LUMPUR Posting
22 Aug 2009 7:30:32 AM GOMBAK Receive from Domestic Location
22 Aug 2009 8:18:45 AM GOMBAK Attempted Delivery
22 Aug 2009 3:35:19 PM GOMBAK Unsuccessful Delivery
Reason: PREMISES CLOSED
Action: Second delivery

I was at home for the whole day though... where's the postman?
what's with this "Attempted delivery"? and "PREMISES CLOSED" do ?

Sometimes they just don't bother to even call. They shout outside and expect you to hear from inside the house xD

What kind of reason is that? I thought Pos Ekspress doesn't need a signature.
Why didn't they just drop it in your post box?

i guess the package doesnt fit in my mailbox and the postman didnt bother to go upstairs to deliver the package to my doorstep

Well at least they will attempt on a second delivery, hope that time around they wont be so lazy

Well , maybe , just maybe .

Postman is lazy to yell and assumed that there's no one in the premises .

Yes , PE doesnt need signature , but , some postman , to ensure that they doesnt get any complain from the recipient , they rather flag it as cant be delivered parcel than drop it into your house and exposed it to be stolen risk , right ?

Received my package today and the tracking system still showing "Unsuccessful Delivery" =.="

Erm...will they really check on the thickness of the envelope? Or as long as it is able to seal up then it's fine?

Thinking of sending some stuff but over the maximum thickness.

They are slow in updating status .

Urmmmm .... better dont take the risk .

Use PosLaju instead .

But it's not worth taking pos laju. The minimum you pay is RM4.50++ need to add with service charge and tax.
My item just weigh 20 gram.
Any other option?

How thick is it ?

Or ,

You can use Air Mail .

Cheaper .

15mm to be precise.

I check that even the big RM4 envelope has a maximum limit of only 10mm.
Air mail provides no tracking tho.

sry wrong section.

Airmal do provide tracking number

Better dont take the risk of parcel being rejected during shipping

You mean pos daftar? Register mail?
Or is there any other way to get tracking number with air mail?

Here's a sample of how's the slip looks like



Oh btw , it is also known as E-Parcel / Air Mail / Sea Mail ... ... .

E-parcel?
I check and it's RM2.50 for the first 1kg.

I guess it's the same speed and service with pos daftar.

Yerp ~ E-Parcel .
