hi all,
i stumble upon e-parcel in one of garage sales's topic but i cant find anymore information abt it in pos.com.my
What is e-parcel for and how does it work?
i heard that it's cheaper than pos laju. Where can i post it?? in post office can?

Also, is it safe and got tracking number?
Thanks all!

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?

registered post have limit max 2 kg. Sender don't have to sign but u need to keep the one of barcode of registered post for your ref. Buyer need to sign it as prove of delivery. Can be track using Pos tracking system. y_owez.. oledi pm u. wow kinda hard because not enough info.

This post has been edited by Shafique: Jan 18 2009, 12:52 AM

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....

Dear, just my 2 cents
It's parcel with tracking no. Start with CDXXXXXXXXXMY. The slip title reads 'Domestik' in blue colour bar.I've posted 4 parcels to my customers, and they all receive in good conditions & slightly faster than pos daftar. No extra service charge. It's Rm2.50 for 1kg & below. Need signature of recipient.

Attached thumbnail(s)

Yup...improved version of parcel method. Now include with tracking. How many days it take for your item to arrive?

Track under posdaftar.
ETA is normally 2-3 weeks working day.

Added on August 23, 2009, 11:29 pmIf the one you mention is just the same as registered post. Small package they give you the normal registered post sticker but if sending big box they ask you to fill in the form. Its registered post only it's for parcel.
As for my experience using it, same delivery time as normal registered post.

This post has been edited by Shizuru: Aug 23 2009, 11:29 PM

Registered post can only send item weighing up to 2kg only...more than 2kg post office will tell you to use e-parcel method.

if compare time frame to east msia, my experience lah, register pos ard 8 days, e parcel 3 days

err,want to ask...how to send parcel using e-parcel?go there and tell the staff there say i wan to send things using e-parcel?

i tried..but unable to do so...no details

u send a parcel frm malaysia to uk?i suggest you to try 1 by 1

I check the pos malaysia web site.
The delivery time for both pos daftar and e-parcel is the same.

So can conclude that e-parcel is just a normal registered mail I think.

oh i just posted a similar question on another thread, but this thread answers all my questions i think.

btw, don't opt for surface mail parcel if you're sending overseas (literally over the sea to a different country) because i sent a book to a buyer in sibu (i'm from PJ) and they lady at the counter said it would take about a week .. i called up and they said its 2-3 MONTHS! gah.

oh..thanks dear for the info!
It's cheaper and faster too??? wa...how come ppl don't use this rather than sucky register post??? ish..will try to use this in future..

so if no one at home to sign e-parcel... where to collect? pos office or pos laju center?

found a link listed all Pos Laju centers that is not listed in Pos Mas website XD
http://www.realrewards.com.my/en/main/even...OutletInfo.html

Nope...from my experience e-parcel is actually faster than registered post. Time taken for delivery is usually within 3-5 days depending on which area you are in. In cities usually can reach 3 days.

If you want to use e-parcel you need to fill in a form which is similar to poslaju form. Ask your nearest post office for the form if you are unsure about this.

E-parcel is actually just normal shipping method plus tracking. So if you want to send parcel using normal post the post office staff will ask you to fill in the e-parcel form. I think they are doing this since the old normal method of shipping (without tracking) got many cases of parcels lost

Added on September 30, 2009, 1:48 pmCan collect at post office. Poslaju centre will handle only poslaju delivery only. Anything else beside poslaju shipping you need to refer to your nearest post office.

so can we conclude that e-parcel > registered post?

thank you svage98 !!! u r like Kaunter Pertanyaan .. haha

haha, maybe know even better than pos malaysia staff...

20 kg i think...

Parcel postage rate

I m now in uk waiting for a parcel from Malaysia, posted on 16th Nov 2009.

E-Parcel have air and sea. By air is slightly expensive but cheaper than pos laju. Besides, u have to make sure ur customers want to use sea or air coz sea is 1-2 months time, i ever received a sea parcel in 3 weeks only. That was because i tot the seller will send it by air, but who knows she dunno there's 2 types of e-parcels. From WM to EM, recommended to use air parcel coz u really keep ur customers waiting for too long if u take parcel BIASA which is refer to SEA. bad experience as i'm from EM. Don't tell ur EM customers free postage but u post using sea. This problem arise only when a parcel is sent from WM to EM or EM to WM. Within WM, there's no parcel by sea.

Anybody know how long does it take to reach SG by using international e-parcel... im from PJ..

Today 9.30am i'm was sleep .the pos man was send a card to me.so i receive a card..and it call me claim back the parcel at my nearest giant hypermarket pos office..At 12.30pm i went to giant and tried get my parcel..but they say no have the parcel of mine..

OK here is the trace of my item of parcel..

Does anyone know how long it takes for a parcel from China to arrive in Malaysia by sea?

Seller told me it was posted on Dec. 18. I've called Pos Malaysia, the latest update was on Dec. 29 from Guang Zhou.

How long do i still need to wait???

I've used the tracking number they gave me to track in pos malaysia. I believe they're using e-parcel.

I think e-parcel delivery time is 2 days within peninsula Malaysia. Mean late normal courier service one day to process.

Courier services = Today ship, next day delivery.
E-parcel = Today ship, next day process, the day after tomorrow delivery.

how long does it take for Eparcel to reach australia i wonder

approx. 5~8 'working days'

Just an info guys..
For those wondering how long it takes for parcel to arrive from West Malaysia to East Malaysia, mine takes about 5 business days using e-parcel air.

Just for future guide.

I'd like to ask..is E-Parcel the same as PosLaju?

The reason why I ask is because when i tracked it online, it can be tracked via E-Parcel and also Poslaju tracking system.

ha? u sure?

E-parcel is different with pos laju.. Pos laju will take 1 to 2 days to arrive but e-parcel takes around 4 to 5 days.

and e-parcel is much more cheaper than pos laju...

I never can track my e-parcel.. Every time I tracked, always no result.. but I received my items.. -.-

lol Ok, thanks for sharing. Strawberry<3

But the guy charge me more.. =.=;;

Not so happy to hear that..but nvm la..will be the first and last time anyway.. As I've read the previous posts they said around 4kg, if you use e-parcel it's only rm18.. the guy charge me rm50. =.=

Dun care la. lol..

This post has been edited by maxxv: Apr 1 2010, 07:29 PM

is your box very big? if the box is very big, they will measure the box.

if weight is more expensive than volumetric's price, they charge weight price

if volumetric's price is more expensive than weight, they charge volumetric price

This post has been edited by Strawberry<3: Apr 1 2010, 09:23 PM

errr...i'm not sure how big the parcel is.but this is the product's box size.

15.00" H (381mm) x 14.00" W (355.6mm) x 16.00" L (406.4mm)

dat was huge box

big also.. i think they use measuring liao...

i kena before... the weight is less than 1kg but the box is big then they charge me Rm50

This post has been edited by Strawberry<3: Apr 1 2010, 10:28 PM

woah..same, i kena charge rm50 also.

O.O;;;



@hkspower: Yea..it's a big one indeed.

volumetric weight will be used only if the size is above 30cm X 30cm X 30cm.
The formula is the volume divide by 6000. That will be the volumetric weight.

sometimes it depend on the staff too... cos got once my package not even more than 30cm...just an A4 envelop that is abit 'Pong'... but he wanna charge me by volumetric.. then i refused to post and go to other post office...

This post has been edited by Strawberry<3: Apr 2 2010, 09:48 AM

It's wrong. If it's not above 30cm, they cant charge you using volumetric weight.
You can complain and ask to see his / her supervisor.

that time i donno... i was curious so i decided to go to other post office to try... and they weigh it...

im sure there are alot of people who doesn't know about it.. then the guy cheat them -.-

Hi, I just sent a parcel to U.S. and because I didn't know about the e-parcel system I just told the lady at the counter to send it via registered airmail. I got the sticker here... RRXXXXXXXXXMY - will that parcel be sent via e-parcel or Pos Daftar?

Edit: Never mind, I read other forums and found out mine is via Pos Daftar (E-Parcel's tracking number begins with CD, Pos Daftar begins with R). What I'm curious about is, is one better than the other? Sounds *almost* the same to me, except if your parcel is more than 2kg you need to use E-Parcel. Anything under that will be Pos Daftar. Can a parcel under 2kg be sent using E-Parcel or is that pointless since they're both the same in terms of speed and safety? So confusing!!

This post has been edited by HeavenDust: Apr 5 2010, 05:14 PM

Yup, u can post items under 2kg with E-parcel. The domestic rate (within peninsula) under 1kg is RM2.50.
Post register cost more, around RM3.40.
IMO, both are the same but E-parcel is cheaper. The delivery time for E-parcel is similar like reg post also.

huh? u can choose either reg or E-parcel. E-parcel to EM is RM5.50 (under 1kg) via air. To WM is RM2.50. Register post cost more...not sure how much...
Hope this helps!

my friend sent a parcel weight about 2 kg from johor to kuching to me.. she sent on friday morning and today is monday and this is the result i search from the tracking system

?? i dont get it...
i need help from u guys whom have experience bout this.. thanks

Thanks for your information. I'm just afraid that my parcel will no update anymore. Probably the tracking for delivering to Sabah is not update frequently.
Here is my tracking CD172268386MY, the tracking number was never update since 10 Feb 2011. Just struck at "SEND ITEM TO PDC Sandakan".

E-Parcel seldom update. Mostly no update at all... Hard to track.. just have to wait. Post from WM to EM will take around 5 to 8 working days or more

damn slow e-parcel..until my customer mad at me

if want fast must use poslaju. but if your customer want e-parcel, make sure u explain to her clearly that e-parcel will take very long time

Hi All,

I would like to know about E-parcel from west malaysia to east malaysia Sabah cost. I saw the web has two options - air and sea/land. air is around RM16 whereas sea/land around RM8.50. May i know how many of the business days to reach the destination by air and sea/land.

Thanks.

Last time my friend at Sarawak send to me by Air. it takes around 5 to 8 working days to arrive me. but sometimes longer. and the most frustrating thing is we never know when will receive the parcel because the tracking number is useless. They seldom update. Have to keep call the customer service and waste money..

So yes it is cheaper than pos laju but it takes longer time.

if cakl cstmer service how long the prosess arrr?? hehehe

depend on them.. normally they will check the same way as we check...

if it said the number does not exist.. they will say the same thing .. they are lazy to go deep in to search so we need to argue and to them that the tracking number is exist and its in the pos slip! then ask them to check properly

I seldom call because its useless.. waste money and time .. I will email them and attach a picture of the post slip to the email as the evidence that the tracking number does exist! Then they will reply the next day or maybe after ppl received the parcel already -.-

This post has been edited by Strawberry<3: Feb 28 2011, 11:28 AM

haizzz damn slow...

hie guys... can anyone help me wif this tracking number cd135904171my? it's not in the record at all

I tried tracked but no record also... when did sender sent out the parcel? From where to where?

They seldom update for E-Parcel ... sometimes u receive already but still no record. So just have to be patience.

seller sent out on fri but it's over cutoff time so should b out on mon... from georgetown to jb

For E-parcel.. .. from georgetown to jb should take around 3 to 4 WORKING days to arrive u

not poslaju lo.. if poslaju , u will receive today liao

actually how safe is e-parcel? can e-parcel buy insurance too?

E-parcel is quite safe as it required signature from receiver but it takes longer time to arrive.

Yes u can buy insurance for e-parcel

mine still not arive..better they dont do eparcel service

so have they contact u ?

mayb tmoro..if not i go mad again

pos malaysia just called up n said there's no such number even in their internal system

check with the sender whether they really sent out the parcel .. ask for proof

My sender sent me guitar at 4 march but now already 9 march still not reach at my house. From jb to Selangor. Is it takes 5-6 days to send it to me?
this my tracking no CD161437282MY

E-parcel is unpredicted. If fastest is 3 or 4 days. Your parcel i tried track just now and it latest update was 7th March : SEND ITEM TO Pelabuhan Klang

Wait tomorrow and see...maybe tomorrow u will receive... or u can call to 1-300-300-300 to ask about your parcel

err... how does an e-parcel slip looks like? does it has computer printed by the post office like poslaju? i.e. time, weight, price...

Yes it does. The form is almost the same with pos laju. Just ask the sender to scan or take photo of the form for u. U will see prices , weight and date. And ofcourse the addresses

This post has been edited by Strawberry<3: Mar 11 2011, 01:33 PM

hmmm... i've got the pics of the slip but din c any computer prints on it...

how about any chop?

well.. just email to pos customer service and attach the picture of the slip to the email. They should start investigate after saw the slip with the tracking number

strawberry, pos malaysia said the item is not sent coz there's no post office computer prints on it... >.< sigh...

means sender didn't sent out? ask the sender ..is it seller in lyn? The sender should go to the post office he/she posted to check

no the seller is from lelong

So, possible scam... Seller got show any responsibility ? he/she should find out with the pos office

i already got my item. so slow using e-parcel. and we cannot predict how many days item will be reach to ur house. waiting is torturing. my advice add some money, use poslaju. more beter.

Glad that u received your parcel safely yup, poslaju is always recommended

seller offered a refund but till now... sigh...

hope u get your refund soon ..

Someone send me a DVD from Australia, send at 7th March 2011 until now i haven't received the parcel. May i know how long it takes to ship from Australia to malaysia?

Thanks.

Hi, i'm asking for opinion to ship a stuff internationally. My item is less than 1kg. 7~800 gram perhaps. Which one is the better choice which includes tracking number and item will reach to the recipient less than 1 month? 2~3 weeks would be okay.

Thanks a lot.

If not rushing, E-Parcel or Pos Daftar is ok.. They do provide tracking number BUT the tracking number can only be track in Malaysia. Once it sent out of Malaysia, u cannot track anymore.. So its quite frustrated to keep waiting

Poslaju will be better because u can track all the way from malaysia to oversea until the receiver receive the parcel. Its faster too but expensive

This post has been edited by Strawberry<3: Mar 25 2011, 11:06 PM

^
Thanks for your quick respond. But any idea which is less than 100 ringgit to ship internationally?

E-Parcel should be less than Rm100. Depend on the weight and country. Each country different rate. Where are u sending?

I'm sending to Malta.

Ow Malta... Pos laju no courier to Malta I think as cannot find in the poslaju list but E-Parcel got.


E-Parcel 1kg rates : http://www.pos.com.my/pos/appl/parcelRated...a=Malta&berat=1

Durations: Unknown

Thanks for your help again. I think i will drop by to the nearest Pos Office and ask. Which one i should avoid if the staff gives me one of the option?

They will probably suggest u E-Parcel, Pos daftar or Poslaju. All 3 is ok.. its depend on u want cheap or expensive only.

Avoid is snail mail that use stamp

Off to pos office just now and use registered mail. Less than 50 ringgit and the counter guy said will arrive around 2 weeks by air. But he gave me stamp to stick on. I wonder why ah?
