It does have tracking number. But not sure whether it's safe or not. Haven't receive my items via E-Parcel yet.

is the service provided by pos malaysia or private company like fedex etc?

E-Parcel is most probably by POS MAS

Yes , there is Tracking system in theri website .

But , the arrival time frame is quite long .

E-Parcel is just like Economy Class of A Flight , it is way more cheaper than others .

Yes , you can post it at POS Office , go to the counter and ask for Normal Air Parcel Slip .

Safe = Cnat be 100% Gurantee ( All courier is the same )

oh..so it's for international shipping?
domestic shipping can? like west m'sia to east m'sia?
how much cheaper compare to Pos laju ya?

It is Domestic and International , if International , The rates is differ than Domestic for sure

You can try search the rates at here dude , http://www.pos.com.my/V1/main2.asp?c=/v1/t...rcel/parcel.asp

Very-very cheap .. 4KG Domestic only around RM18

E-parcel is normal parcel. E-parcel is the new computerized parcel management system used by Pos Malaysia. Ahhh.. i work with it everyday.. *sigh*. It can locate the parcel progress almost like Pos Laju tracking system. As worker, there's still couple of weakness in this system n result can be a bit different if u call Pos Customer service (1-300-300-300) because they use different system.

It have two option: Seamail/surface and Airmail. If u send parcel with Pos.. everything is handled with E-parcel system.

Oh. So its like using norm post but box form. And its a system. So meaning since norm post doesn't have tracking number, this one you just add some money to get tracking number?

Is it only for big boxes or envelopes also can?

is it the same with registered postage?
buyers need to sign also?

yea wads the diff with reg post ( NOT RECOMMENDED ). just cuz its parcel so its called e-parcel?

yea thanks anyway

Shafiq , you work at POS ??

oh...ic...but wat abt e-parcel. Buyer need to sign? wat's the diff with e-parcel and register?

ya lor. im confused also. e-parcel is it like registered post but for more than 2kg?

swt. Until now, the thing not arrived. Have contacted the seller since the parcel still remains in the post office where he post. Din realised that the parcel will be delivered by ship D= and takes 1 month to arrive. Since 2 weeks have past, have to wait for another 2 weeks. T.T.

Then what's the different between e-parcel and register post?
Which is more faster? safer? and cheaper?

Do any1 have more info on e-parcel?

i've posted a parcel to uk using air mail + registered post, how long it takes to reach and how to track it at pos.com.my? track under posdaftar or e-parcel?

track under both dear....
try both...
i think most likely is e parcel....
