Yeah, for sure, but that’s not what this is about. At least Australia is actually far away. Phoenix to Vancouver is like just over half the distance from Sydney to Perth and this package went about three times as far to get there.
Also I think it’s not quite as bad anymore these days, at least in NZ we usually get stuff in a week or two now and although it’s still expensive the costs have come down a bit too.
Bro, you do not know the pain of having to pay $70 and waiting two months for something to be imported that Australians have

Having relatives in Perth, I know their recent black Friday purchases from Sydney may not arrive in time for Christmas
I was looking at importing some movie posters and half the cost is import, with them not being able to arrive before Christmas
Oh, yeah. I think a sudden change to the Australian shipping problems would literally be the thing that make Americans finally riot.
Counter point. You can buy possum fur clothing with same day delivery.
I work in a natural fibres shop, and if you can get same day delivery, I guarantee you that you’re not getting a good product
If i’m ordering possum fur. I’m flexible on quality.
Furs, wools and skins are some of the things that, if made and treated well, will last decades
Do not skimp on them
Wise words to say when handing your vintage possum garments down to the next generation.
so, if there made poorly they might last years?
Fuck me, this is the first Lemmy comment that actually made me laugh out loud.

Kiwi?
