Does Amazon use Australia Post for deliveries?

Does Amazon use Australia Post as the courier company for the Australian leg? Just wondering if I should put the my parcel locker as the delivery address.

Edit 1: The items ships to Australia according to the Amazon website.

  • The delivery I just got from Amazon came via AusPost

    I've had no issues receiving Amazon Parcels using Parcel Locker address via their basic (cheapest) delivery. Make sure it's from Amazon and not some third party seller.

  • Thanks for the quick reply guys. How do you check if it is from a third party seller. Thinking of getting these.

    It says Sold by HYPERCEL and Fulfilled by Amazon.

      Fulfilled means its shipped by Amazon.

      Amazon ship orders to Australia in Bulk then AusPost takes over the delivery.
      You can see the barcode on the parcel that AusPost uses to generate a shipping label.

      This way amazon saves money.
      Ships hundreds of parcels to Aus on a pallet at once
      AusPost scans barcodes and labels parcel then ships locally

    • Nice earphones. What's the difference between these and the cheaper X80's?

      I honestly can't tell the difference sometimes when it comes to audio electronics.

      • Not too sure, I saw the reviews for the X80's and assumed that the newer version is a bit better.

    Amazon just signed on to use AusPost for the next three years.

    I reckon they'll branch out after that.

    Aus Post does do the shipping for Amazon. Will be interesting to see what is going to happen when Amazon comes here… Given how shit their service is…

  • It will depend on the shipping method you select; if it's the cheapest option then yes it's usually handed over to Australia Post for last leg.

  • Ok. So just had an Amazon delivery today and using the standard delivery method via iparcel it was handed to Fastway once it landed here.

    Glad I didn't use my parcel locker this time, can't be sure who they will use now. Usually Auspost but this time obviously not the case.
