I believe the prices listed have always been USPS (US Postal Service).
AU shipping prediction...

Throw them really, really hard?
Just a guess! And I'm in Britain, so I hope Ross et al are feeling strong that day...

I read from AU webpage, it said the DVD set will be shipped by "Global Priority" mail service.
As I'm not living in US, I don't know much about the "Global Priority"..... Would it be a registered mail? I mean does it need signature when arrive the mail destination. Could anyone answer my question? Thanks!
I just wanna make sure the DVD set won't be just placed in my mailbox and can safely arrive my home.

well, global priority is not express, but it's faster than normal shipping (which would happen on a ship. haha. huge joke).
it should take less than a week, normally.
however, it is not registered. But since you will have to pay customs in most countries for a package of that value rest assured that the postal service won't just put it in your mailbox and pay the bill themselves

This is slightly OT, but I need to vent: Priority mail is a joke. I've been selling on eBay for years, and I've come to discover this. If you read the fine print at the PO, it says that priority mail will be received within 3-5 days...BUT THIS IS NOT GUARANTEED. Also, I've talked with a couple postal workers, and they said that (in their branch) priority mail went out in the same bins as the regular mail. There was no sorting to make it "priority."
