You can purchase one from Aust Post (roughly $10-$11 total includes posting). Comes with up to $100 FREE Insurance. You can keep card safe by using bubble wrap and toploaders/screwdowns, etc. It's like what we receive from US sellers where we have to sign for it at the PO. Works fine. Any one else got suggestions??

I can remember the exact costs but, parcel post costs minimum of around $10 (or something similar) then a couple of dollars per $100 insurance. Im not sure how you would go claiming insurance on one of those documents as they are only supposed to be used to carry documents.
