I ordered a cover for my Kindle from AliExpress a couple of weeks ago. $8 for the item, and free shipping. It was delivered in NZ three days later, not too shabby!
Our local NZ Post driver is a lazy fecker though. Without fail he just sticks a card in the letterbox (at the end of the drive, don’t have them in the front doors here), sometimes with ‘driveway’ written on it.
Fair enough, we have a long and steep drive, but every other courier company in town, all of whom use the same Hi-Ace vans, can make it down and up again no problem. Just not the NZ Post nobber.
