that

Postage
and
handling
for
this
item
is
listed .
I
use
pre-paid
satchels
as
the
cheapest
option,
unless
an
item
does
not
fit
in
this
and
then
I
have
to
resort
to
AusPosts
standard
parcel
rates
(more
expensive).
I
take
care
in
packaging
all
my
shipments
and
bubble
wrap
books,
and
protect
clothing
to
look
after
your
purchase.
Western
Australia
(Perth
Metro
50km)
is
a
little
cheaper
with
a
flat
postage
rate
by
standard
parcel
post.
There's
gotta
be
some
advantage
to
living
west
of
the
rabbit
proof
fence!

will
happily
combine

For
Australian

I
prefer
Direct

bank
account
or
Payment
by
Paypal,
alternatively
payment
via
Money
Order

fine.
I
DO
NOT

too
long
to
finalise
transactions.
PAYPAL

are
accepted

purchases
(over
$10

Finally,

problems

communicate
this

me

to
politely
worded
reminders
is
simply
not
an
option.
A
payment
system
or
some
sort
of
alternative
may
be
reached, IF
you
communicate
with
me. I
am
sorry
but
rest
assured
I
will
pursue
and
file
NON-PAYING
bidder
paperwork
and
leave
negative
paperwork
to
warn
other
VERY
hard
working
sellers
here
on
Oztion
to
deal
with
you
with
caution
-
harsh
but
a
necessary
reality
in
the
world
of
online
selling
-
let's
make
this
fun,
not
work!
Problems,
queries,
clarifications,
requests
for
books,
or
queries
on
how
to
go
about
using
Oztion
are
all
welcome
