    Hi Stackers.
    Im ready to sell with the higher prices lately and its just time for me.
    However half of my stack is in NZ for safe keeping, its very safe.
    Now I want to sell and im in Melbourne.
    Does anyone have experience with posting between Aus/NZ what are the rules.
    Things I should look into etc?
    In the past I have taken with me on flights or in luggage, situation is different now.
    Any experience you have on how to go about this would be much appreciated.
    Thanks Sweetbread.

    I am no expert but I wouldn't try and ship bullion between the two countries. The postal service is really unreliable (A customer posted me a $4000.00 item (not PMS) within Australia 15 days ago and it's still marked as "delayed"). A courier company would be faster and more reliable but once you declare bullion in the package you may have problems with customs. Can you arrange to sell it over there instead?

    It wouldnt be the best option as my parents are elderly and I would not want to get them involved.

    There will no doubt be forum members with good insight from experience in shipping between Au & NZ, hopefully you will get some more answers.

    Never seen this kind of spread from Perth Mint. I was thinking why i didn't break even yet, as i usually track what spot is doing.
