No problem. He has some spares and he's making them last by
soft-starting with a Variac.

 JE> I only have a rate schedule for "Airmail Letter-Post" here.
 JE> 1 oz - $0.80
 JE> 2 oz - $1.70
 JE> on up to 64 oz - $25.90

Your rates are a lot cheaper than airmail rates from Australia to
US.

IIRC the basic price for a letter is about $1.20. About a year
ago I enquired the rate to send a packet weighing 24 ounces to
US -- it was going to cost _WAY_ over $20!

 JE> I mail lots of packages "small packets" of photographic
 JE> slides to places all over the world when returning entries
 JE> people have entered. I know of no category of "fragile".
 JE> That has to be taken care of by the packaging.

That would be right. I think they dropped the "fragile" category
when they went to automatic mail sorting equipment.
