Unless otherwise advised in the item description, airmail postage and firm packing is US$2.80 to anywhere in the world.   More than one small item (such as stamps) will go together in the same envelope for the one lot of postage.

Where the items to be posted are larger (such as covers or large stamp blocks or artwork), then the cost of postage is shown in the item description.   But US$2.80 is the minimum cost to anywhere in the world except for Australia where the cost is US$1.50.

IMPORTANT NOTE - those wishing to pay by PayPal must add 4% to the total.

IMPORTANT NOTE - for buyers in China, India, Russia and Romania who pay by PayPal, REGISTRATION is COMPULSARY.    Too many unregistered letters have somehow gotten lost or stolen when sent to these high risk countries and paypal forces me to refund payment to the buyers even though I have posted their letters.  If you pay by moneybookers then registration is not compulsory.   But if buyers from these countries pay by paypal THEN REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED no matter what the cost of the item is.

Buyers from all countries must pay for registration if the total amount purchased comes to US$50 or more and they are paying by paypal.    If you are paying by moneybookers and the total is over $50, then you can decide whether you want the protection of registration or not.   But if registration is not taken, then risk of posting is at buyers risk.

COST OF REGISTRATION in Australia is now AU$18.50 (US$14.00) for a large A4 sized international registration envelope and AU$12.00 (US$9.00) for a small sized international registered envelope.
