Hi never thought I would be interested in and other coins than USA but have been looking at the Australia Mint web site they have some real nice looking coins.

How expensive is the shipping to the USA in general say for a couple coins?

You are looking at AU$15.00 for most packaged proof coins as it becomes a 500g parcel...gets cheaper the more you send.

Hi Shane! Are the 2007 Lunar Coins available? If so can you mail me the price info? I'd like to order one from you to keep my set up to date. Thanks, Mike

Brucec, also remember your prices are cheaper to start with, because you don't pay G.S.T.

Hi again.
Steve sometimes forgets, like some other I can name.
GST = Goods and services tax @ 10%, not payable if goods purchased in Australia and shipped overseas.
regards,

Where you make your purchase is important I find that the mint charges a higher shipping cost than does Bigfella or other Australian dealers.

for those outside of Australia two things to remember about price.
1 you pay no GST
2 MAKE sure you look at the price in US dollars the price in American dollars is less than what is listed on the Australian sites. some of the sites have conversion charts others you have to figure yourself or ask the dealer what the conversion rate is.

If you use a credit card or paypal the conversion rate is done for you automatically. But in your head you need to know the real cost in your own currency.
