C.O.D. BY RAIL.
Without infringing any principle of business as now conducted in New Zealand, the Railway Department undertakes delivery of parcels from sellers to buyers on the “cash-on-delivery” basis. In the ordinary course the Department accepts consignments up to a declared value of £SO, and charges only 4d in the £ (minimum charge 6d), in addition to freight. It is anticipated that when this service becomes widely known it will be appreciated by sellers and buyers in all parts of the Dominion, particularly when the supplier and the orderer are far apart. This delivery service has the same extensive range as the inter-island booking system.
