I think that we are subsidizing foreign countries postal services Norm, something that is obviously not reciprocated as it costs a damn arm and a leg to send even a small item overseas, and heaven forbid you should want tracking so some low life doesn't steal it before it even gets out of the country. I noticed on my last order of carbide slot drills that came in from China that they came via DHL satchel and then via Auspost from Brisbane, and they arrived in 4 days and still was free postage.
