I'm about to move back to Australia and down to Puckapunyal and am looking for some inside info.

Is there an online printlab that does a mail-out after development? I'm looking for something reasonably priced. I'm going to miss COSTCO!

Any leads will be appreciated.

So are you looking for a lab that will post the prints directly to your client?

Nope. A lab where I can get the pics. I'll be 100km North of Melbourne so posting them to me would be a bonus.

I know Puckapunyal and now I think I know what you are after. In your post you asked "Is there an online printlab that does a mail-out after development?" but your sig lists a digital camera, so I am assuming you mean printing, not development.

There are a quite a few here. Quality varies.

Big W offers a service through Fuji where you can upload your digital files for printing and they will either post them to you or send them to a local Big W store. I understand that colour correction etc is turned on although I haven't tried them.
http://bigw.com.au/photo.html is the link.
I have read good reports from http://www.bigphoto.com.au/contactUs.aspx. They are in New Zealand, however all their prices are in Australian Dollars.

I have used http://www.photoenlargements.com.au/ for small prints 6 x 4 and 8 x 6, turnaround was quick and the prints arrived in an express post envelope. Print quality is good.

The other one I use is http://www.digitalworks.net.au they do a good 20 x 30 metallic and 10 x 15 Matte and no doubt other sizes. Again delivery is by express post, this time rolled in a cylinder.
I have their upload program installed, its very easy to use.
