One thing I don’t like about the post is…

Inconsistency.
If this one didn’t convince you, listen to this:
I had 2 items to post the other day, so I took both my envelopes and went to the post.

Just by looking at these measurements, do you think that’s consistent at all?
- Same measurements
- Same weight
- Packed the same way in same-sized envelope
- Same person serving me
And yet they are charged SO differently!
They contain the exact same product inside!
So needing to send it out as soon as possible with no other posts around, I decided to let them charge me as they like… just this one time.
Oh well, at least buyer 1 received item #1 today.
That’s right, the one charged with a cheaper postage rate!
Someone explain this to me… because I don’t get it.
