Read more - CatHi! A parcel was posted to me on Thu 22 Jun, and is still listing as Pending with no updates. Apparently it was posted via a postbox rather than in store (specifically one on Murray Rd in Preston, VIC). I'm just wanting to check whether it may have been lost, or whether this is normal as it wasn't posted over the counter. Tracking no. is 0307052902723006000994. Thanks!
I have also already double checked with the sender that it has been sent, and double checked the tracking no. with them also.
Hi Caitlin,
I can see that 0307052902723006000994 has now been scanned in our system which is great to see. What's your postcode and I can let you know when to expect it?...

But I don’t think the suite number registered and now my packages have been delivered for a week now sitting there and shopmate haven’t contacted me. Is there anything I can do about it
Hey Michael,
Sounds like it might be a good idea to check in with the shopmate team. Their phone and email are listed here: https://shopmate.auspost.com.au/help-and-support/get-in-touch
I would like to bring Hearing Aids into Australia.
These have not been registered in Australia so the company cannot send them directly to Australia.
Can I have them sent to an address in USA and then sent to Australia.
Kind Regards.

That's a tough one Norm,
You can find a list of things that can't be sent via Shopmate here http://auspo.st/119MVte so you might want to check with the manufacturer/seller whether they would be permissible against those guidelines before buying.
Is there a way to get information about oversized package ie. the dimensions of my parcel as I am sure there is a mistake at your end.
Hey Suzanne,
Could you let me know a bit more detail about the situation? Are you referring to a parcel you've posted or one you are waiting for?...
Read more We don't record the dimensions of a parcel so it would need to be measured by the recipient to confirm the dimensions.

Read moredered has been sent through shopmate before, and this quantity is far less and weighs 1.8kg. Tracking no: C12073105704100My package from my forwarding address in the US has said “it’s being prepared” since Dec 7, it is now Dec 11! This is a Christmas present and the tracking says est. arrival Dec 15!! That’s not going to happy if it hasn’t even left the US yet! Can you please tell me if it has in fact left the US yet? (It says packages will be shipped within 3 business days!)
My tracking is: 00093493040003950054
Hey Evelyn,
Being prepared means we haven't got the parcel yet so if that's the case, best to always follow up with your sender directly, especially if they are shipping it to Australia using some other forwarding or logistics company....
Read more Looks like 00093493040003950054 has now actually been posted with us on Saturday though so will now be in transit to you though the post. The tracking indicates it was posted with us up in Sydney and it looks like you're in Victoria. Parcels travelling that distance are currently estimated to take up to around a week so I'd expect this to reach you by early next week if not earlier.Hi Shopmate,
I intend to buy an iPhone 12 Pro directly from the US Apple Store. The cost is USD$1,299.
May I know if I will have to pay any import duty and inspection fees (in addition to insurance, freight and GST)?
If so, how much will each the duty and inspection fees be? Please let me know. Thanks!
