Amazon online retailer blacklists the South African Post office
Wednesday, June 18, 2008 - 17:00
There is so much theft going on at the South African post office that online retailer Amazon has decided not more business through the South African Post office. This means if a South African wants to buy anything through Amazon you'd have to pay over R400 extra. Thanks to the thiefs in the post office.

Ah that sucks man. Maybe now the South African government will do something about it. Although I doubt it.

Typical African government. I hope the rest of the western world finally sees what we have to put up with here. Viva ANC!

As a resident of South Africa I even had christmas mail stolen with great regularity by staff memebers of the South African Postoffice. Thieving post office employees hope to find the odd Euro Bank Note sent to grandchildren by European grandparents. On many occasions, letters, that promise to contain anything of value, are being opened or don't arrive at all. AMAZON's decision is long overdue and fully justified.
