That's not at all what I believe. My point was that Australia Post seems to have unreasonably restrictive handling "rules" compared to many countries. I have shipped coins from the US to Australia, Canada, Great Britain and Russia. I have also received coins from many countries.

In my opinion it is a waste of time and effort to sell coins to overseas countries, especially in bulk. The postage is far too high and finding an overseas buyer is not as easy as it may seem.

My most recent purchase was 11 coins from a seller in Germany and the combined shipping was $2. It does take patience, but that goes for many coin types. Apparently, the seller knows how to make money in this situation. As long as I get the 11 coins in a few weeks, I'm happy.
