Dave Leonard,
Yes that's reasonable - make sure that covers insurance and if it doesn't, the insurance may only be an extra $10 - $15 Aust.
That would be through Australia Post, really the only way to go in my opinion.
I am led to believe that it's even dearer to send things from the USA to Australia.

Subject: [FlyRotary] Shipping from Australia

I just bought a TO4 manifold that I think will fit off of e-bay but it is located in western Australia.
 
 
The problem is that the guy wants A LOT for shipping, here is what he quoted including insurance.
 
AIR EXPRESS- 1 WEEK- $139.00AU   
AIR ECONOMY- 2 WEEKS- $118.00AU
BOAT- 12 WEEKS- $84.00AU
 
Each AU$ will cost me about $.80.  But that still seems pretty steep.  The guy also wants a money order instead of some other way to track the payment.  Does this sound reasonable to those of you who know about shipping from australia?  Its there a better way to make the payment?  Anyone know of a better source for these manifolds?
 
Thanks,
Dave Leonard
