I am keen to get my hands on bundles 50 or 100 of $1 and $2 bills but the problem here is that I do not reside in the US ... more like on the other side of the globe. Now I have checked out ebay and the best deal I have seen is a bundle of 100 $1 bill is selling at $129.90. Is there a way I can get these at face value (or close to it) and have them shipped overseas? I checked out BEP site as well, they sell uncut sheets but not bundles, plus BEP only ships to a US address. Thanks for your help! :-) Report this Post to the Staff

Nickelman Pillar of the Community United States 1397 Posts	Posted 09/12/2012 8:01 pm I think you are referring to a strap which is 100 notes. A bundle is 10 straps. You are going to have to make a contact in the US that can get them for you and even if you do I don't know if there will be any problems with customs or not. Report this Post to the Staff
WVUcoins Valued Member United States 141 Posts	Posted 09/12/2012 8:21 pm Nickelman is correct. Do you know if customs would allow someone to send you a couple hundred in US currency. Would you have to pay a tax on the money. Also the cost of shipping them and the insurance (if the Post office will let you insure cash) will eventually increase the cost significantly.

Schwanke Valued Member United States 242 Posts	Posted 09/13/2012 07:58 am EDIT Just deleted a huge long post detailing what I thought was current situation with exporting American currency but then I thought. Its been 4 years since I checked maybe its changed. 4 years ago I found a document on the USPS website listing all the stuff you cant export through USPS and it definitely included US currency among other things. Now I cant find the document and every link that I think would link to that document ends in an error page or a main page redirect. Even ones on the federal sites. So I wonder if maybe they changed this in four years and the websites havent caught up yet. I guess just buyer beware. Edited by Schwanke 09/13/2012 08:52 am Report this Post to the Staff
