This is all through the USPS. As far as I can tell this is anywhere to Australia. Seriously if any of you need a bunch of odds and ends shipped over send me a PM. We’ll figure it out.
The killer prices you guys are talking about seem to be when you have a weird shaped/oddball item. If it fits in a USPS flat rate box/envelope and fits within the weight limit these prices really aren't bad.
