Thread: Carbetec are a funny mob eh!

If it is in Victoria, Preston is close to Brunswick - both suburbs of Melbourne. Doesn't help you much but it might explain part of the puzzle.

Bill

That would do it shame the old postcode didnt stand for much eh

Cheers

Hi Dingo,

Prestons is also a suburb in SW Sydney.

I regularly courier stuff for work and seldom if ever need to put on a postcode. But most of my stuff goes local. Maybe you need to specify the transport next time,

Sebastiaan

To add to the confusion

Maryborough Queensland

Maryborough Victoria

This is why we always insist that the state as well as the postcode is used. DAMHIK

Prestons is also a province on the south coast of China.


Let’s face it Shane. No one likes you, Timbecon doesn’t like you, Sherwood doesn’t like you, Carba-tec doesn’t like you and Aus Post doesn’t like you.



Better luck next time brother.

I don't like you either, Shane.


I had a customer in a past job who ordered some product from us. He was in Belmont, just outside Geelong.

Our logistics mob rang me the next day from Belmont, just outside Newcastle (NSW) to tell me that the street did not exist.
Two days later I got the same call from Belmont in QLD.
Three days after that they tried to deliver it to Newcastle again.

He finally got his laminate a week and a half after he ordered it. And it had been damaged.


Just kidding about not liking you Shane. You're orright.

Prestons is an exchange just down the road from em Shane just out from Liverpool handles areas 2168 to 2170 and a few others.

If you get it from their good luck, when living in tamworth we posted some stuff to swmbo's mother a hand knitted jacket worth hum about $200 still hasn't arrrived that was over 15 years ago, then some softwear my dauughter needed copies of gone MIA that was 10 years ago.

Nothing Liberal leaves its docks

There is also a Preston in Qld & another one in Tassie.

It could be Preston Beach, that is in WA.

I went to school with a kid called Preston, does that help?

Dunno, is he big enough to deserve his own postcode?

Here's a little help WD,

Australia Post (authoritative)

(search criteria) Preston, Western Australia;

No search results found: (possible reason: does not exist)

Preston is also a river that heads South out of Bunbury ... Shame Brunswick (WA) is EAST of Bunbury on the BRUNSWICK river .... maybe it floated UP the wrong river from Bunbury ... that's Bunbury WA not Bunbury SA

He wasn't, but his little brother was.

Good one fellas

Sabastian... The funny thing is THEY KNOW ME! At Carbetec in Perth they have this wee card with my details on it like name ADDRESS phone number etc and they are here in WA just like I am and I rang them from the freeway when I went up there the bloke had the card in his hand when I paid for and ordered the thing... the problem is they use Aussie Post... I havent seen the package YET so Ive no idea if they put the post code on it but Im assuming they did which means AP got it wrong but I could be wrong here and maybe they didnt put the PC on it? Doesnt matter!! Someone mucked up and Im STILL waiting!

Bob as I said Ive not seen it yet so maybe they left of the state and the pc??

Wongo... so everybody hates little ol me? well I dont care!! if they dont get something as simple as sending a parcel to a client right for whatever reason I say something hopefully they will sort it and learn to do it right if its not their problem and APs then maybe they will consider using a more reliable courier there is a lot of difference with the other mobs carryon than this... Carbetec are still my favored woodworking store over here (little choice but what the hey )

Rudd he was lucky it didnt come over to Belmont in WA

Wheelin Im contacting Carbetec to get them to do yet another trace on the thing this morning... I wont be waiting that long!!... worst comes to worst if its not here by next Tues they can drop the damned order and whenever it arrives they can keep it and I will pick one up when I head up there

Cliff no post office as such in Preston Beach... and its got Beach in its name this one apparently doesnt

Major... yep funny I got that too

Ramps please dont confuse the buggars any more than they already are otherwise it will head for Preston CHINA!!

Okay gotta make a phone call

Dingo, do you know Timbecon has a new owner? Maybe they will look after you this time.
