    So my replacement laptop is coming today (possibly). They had an option I’ve never seen before - “Australia Post next day evening (6-9pm)”. I decided to go with this one instead of express post, because surprisingly it was actually a dollar cheaper. Apparently this is part of some service called Australia Post metro express, or possibly startrack courier (both things I never knew existed). The shipping info said they did the pre lodgement at 1pm, and apparently it WILL arrive within the next 4 hours.

    I’m really sceptical, because since when do Australia Post do after hours delivery, and half the time their next day shipping doesn’t even happen. But I will update you all later. If it actually does arrive, then I’m going to think I’m in a dream

        Not yet. It still says it’s ready for processing. But the website says it’s at Tullamarine (my local delivery centre). Guess it depends how late they’re deliver.

        I hope they don’t deliver it tomorrow though, because I’m out all day and don’t want to go to the post office
