Has anyone had any experience checking in additional baggage while in transit?

I'm flying from Europe through to Oz, and transiting in Singapore for about 12 hours and will be picking up some stuff while in transit. If I already have bags checked through from Europe, will I be able to add in another checked piece in transit at Singapore, or is it best to ask to not have my bags checked through to Oz and just pick it up and recheck in Singapore?

I do this all the Time when on Retrievals as sometimes you get extra bags during the trip that are not required in the cabin.

I have had the allowance though to do such manoeuvres. So no need to pay any extra.

You should be able to check additional luggage during your transit but not sure how strict they will be with your actual luggage allowance.
