Well I guess it is a fairly healthy order from down under.

There is however a discrepancy in the total cost of about AUD 70. I'll double check the figures. I know that for all but one order your total in AUD was calculated at 1:1.24 and at the time it should've been 1:1.25 as noted on the spreadsheet. My mistake. But that only accounts for AUD 20 total diff.
----------
OK, the actual exchange rate is 1 USD to 1.275
Twenty bucks I would've worn but not 70.
I'll let you know the extra to transfer. Sorry to ask you to do it twice.Cheers, Ern

Thank you, everything is packed and ready to be sent out today (Thursday) it's 2:30am here. Shipping to Australia is about 7 - 10 days... now I wonder who paid the shipping... hummm.
Thank you again,
Doug

I paid for postage but Dave (Ozkaban) works just around the corner so we are going to do coffee and a tool handover. So Ern, you can have my postage amount, let me know if you need any more.
And Mr Thompson thanks for the super speedie service. I would have bet that you would run out of something (probably something I ordered)regards

And double thanks to Doug who agreed to ship in two boxes to make our end easier. That's jacked up his costs which he agreed to absorb.Cheers, Ern

Thanks GoGuppy, and Cliff.
Done some digging. Seems PayPal charge a 2.5% fee for currency exchanges but they don't build this into their currency converter. Dumb or what?
Cliff, apparently the moths taste OK charred on hot coals but I won't see 'em as they fly back north for the winter.Cheers, Ern
