Man, I love international shipping costs.

For me, the $85 keyboards have a shipping cost of $86.55 and the other one has a shipping cost of $99.85. Fun times.

Let's be honest, Australia is so far away (and filled with aluen creatures) that it's not that strange they charge interplanetary delivery costs :P .

An F-122 is huge and weighs 3.75 kg not including packaging.

The US Post Office has a flat rate box that will contain one that goes for $78, but shipping doesn't get much lower.

"The Trump campaign announced in a letter that Republican candidates and committees are now expected to pay “a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC” for using his “name, image, and likeness in fundraising solicitations.”
“Any split that is higher than 5%,” the letter states, “will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump's campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”"

I'm not in Australia. I still get 80+ bucks shipping. And this is sucks.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
