Tentworld often appears in the search results when I’m looking for items related to caravanning, camping, hiking, etc and often the prices are competitive however, as a resident of Tasmania, when the Tentworld postage costs are included, the competitive price advantage disappears.
When looking at a recent $99 product (small 500g item), whilst it would have been Free Delivery to much of the country, the postage to Hobart would have been an additional $16. A quick check on AusPost and the product would have fit into a small post bag for the sum of $9.20 (including the bag) to post to anywhere in Australia.
I would’ve thought that as a state that has a large caravanning, camping and hiking industry Tasmania would be a prime market, but this gives the appearance that those of us in Tassie might be subsidising the Free Delivery provided to mainland locations.
