no plastic sleeves

Please help. <br> Do speed services still offer a counter to counter service through the post office?<br> I wanted to send a packet to Pretoria from East London. The Beacon Bay post office advise that they do not have the plastic sleeves so I cannot send anything using the counter to counter service. They advise that there are no plastic sleeves available in East London. <br> I used to use the counter to counter service regularly but now in am forced to drive to Pick n Pay and use Amarex shop to door service.<br> Is this correct! Is there a shortage of plastic sleeves or has the service been discontinued?<br>
