      To buy those items separately it isn't easy. Secondly sending stuff overseas is bloody expensive. Sent something to Canada the other day under a kg was just under $40.

      Convenience is a factor…

      G'day HeXa

      We started Down Under Box as we have sent many care packages to friends and families living overseas over the years and the entire process is not very straightforward (or affordable). When you order with us it is quick and easy to do whilst still making a nice gift as you can personalise it with a note and photo.

      The service itself is a lot more than "$5-$10 worth of sealed food products", it is for people who do not have the time to go out and purchase the items, buy a suitable box and then wait in the post office line to fill in the customs declaration forms. On top of this we offer tracked international postage for $20 anywhere in the world, the Economy Air solution you suggested does not include tracking and for 1kg to the US would cost $33.38 for the postage alone. If you were to compare our postage to the "Standard" international option for Auspost International that would be $41.18 for a 1kg package (and that is the postage alone).

      I hope this clears up the value of the service a little more!

        it is for people who do not have the time to go out and purchase the items

        You realise you a posting this on OzBargain ?

      • good point and well answered - like sending toy animals and flowers, the convenience and end result matters

        my mistake with postage pricing, hence the ninja edit

          I can completely understand the initial shock, I am glad I was able to clear up the value of the service as a whole

      • What courier do you use?

      Sorry about that! The deal has been updated

  • there are tricky customs declaration forms to deal

    Just out of curiosity, what part of CN23 do you find tricky?

    • The "gift" tick box…

      Hey, just realised this deal is a legit use of that tick box. Well I'll be damned!

    I've used this service before. Back and forth between here and Switzerland, I'm looking at $50 at least on postage alone just to treat my second family to a taste of nostalgia in Switzerland. The fact I can jump on and get it sent out at this price is pretty good for me. They also pack it nicely, chuck in a letter and a photo that you upload. The whole idea is awesome and honestly - for what it is, I was impressed.

    Until you've lived away from home, you won't understand the true value of this company 😀🇦🇺
