God, better bet to find some US friends in the area with an APO box and get it mailed at standard us rates.

I've sent a bit down under and if it's cheap shipping it takes 2-3 months...
Funny enough stuff comes from china in no time with dirt cheap shipping.

If any of you figures out anything whatsoever in terms of costs of international shipments WRT USPS, please do share with the rest of us.

USPS are the epitome of governmental failings ... Damn shame they are constitutionally allowed to exist (via congress).

If USPS were held to the requirements of any business - that not being subsidized by what is perceived as an infinite supply of money courtesy of US taxpayers - it would have been dissolved as a concern decades ago.

Good luck gents - I haven't been able to figure out WTF the rates are for parcels my entire life.
