I moved to Australia more than a decade ago and what shocked me was this country is quickly becoming expensive to live.
My business is mostly overseas and there is not a single chance I could run my business in Australia with the cost of local shipping rates. It still wouldnt sell even for free. There would need to be a radical change from the government for any of the buying from internet business to compete with international businesses. The only way you would sell is that you have completely different product protected from various patent in countries this still will not stop clones showing up on Ali lol.
The buying from internet are mostly drop shipped. These items are not coming from the sellers, they come from warehouses located closely to the shipping channel. The orders are packed and shipped in hundreds every minute. They are packed with your address and scan with a local post authority working on site. Its as efficient as it gets unfortunately it also chokes the postal channel. But its OK, there will not be any protest for overtime and underpaid because its a communist country and people prefer to work hard rather than complain. They cherish their job rather than toiling around. BTW there's no centerlink there :). Government poke.
So it chokes the local shipping channel what now? They offload their goods to Singapore post. How does a small country offer such help to a massive operation. I am taking about hundreds of items posted per second. So much it would bring Amazon to a halt in minutes. Its amazing how efficient when there is less of the red tapes can make. Its also how volume can quickly turn a miniscule amount into pretty profit. You guys have to see it for yourself to understand the scale of operation these shipping companies operate.
BTW FYI Ali just increase their stakes on Singapore Post 3 days ago. Google the news of you like.
As for free postal, blame it on the union post agreement. If we post less items overseas it will be harder and harder for local seller and buyer because oversea post prices will always be cheaper.
If there's any indication of Aussie manufacturing, look at the the current automotive industry, unfortunately looking bleak. This is really sad. Countries like UK moved on to high tech manufacturing making satellites and such why Aussie is lagging behind. It saddens me to see manufacturing go. Means my metal tools and supplies will be more expensive and impossible locally.
