I once had a 'COD' through Australia Post take nine (9) days from Brisbane to Adelaide (Snail Mail). When you think from Hong Kong to Adelaide takes 4-5 calendar days, what a joke Australia Post is.

Cheers,

Sometimes it takes upto 15 days, depend on the receiver has the money and go to the Post Office to exchange it for the goods, some receivers waited until the last notice from OZpost.

cod usually take longer than general post, why not give auspost a call to see if the cod no. has reached their local post office or still intransit.
sometimes if you don't sign the dangerous good decar, its always sent via truck never via air.

If after 30 days the buyer/addressee hasn't picked up the parcel at their end, you'll be liable for postage both ways. COD = not good.
