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!
Combining

combine
