It shouldn't cost that much to get it shipped over here.

Going from here to the UK though, that's about right, haha.

No you can probably get around 45-55 AUD on most bats shipped although it can be more

Look here. Your only chance of getting it as low as 20-30 ozzie dollars is going the snail mail option, which I wouldn't bother with.

I've bought from suppliers on here, and forum members. Usually looking at around the $40-$50 mark and they are on my doorstep within a week easily. It seems alot for postage but if you can scrape the extra money together you will save a heap in the long run for a good stick as compared to buying one in Australia.

I recently got a blank bat  - Sent on a Monday and arrived within the week. Decent shipping price too

My last two bats I've spent $300 AUD on, which rival and beat any off the shelf $700 bat you could get from over here. Don't see the need to spend any more than that now.

Sorry to get to you so late, but you definitely should have gone with a Gabba, I know a few first grade players at my club and junior state reps have sponsorships with them, as well as many 1st grade players in brisbane.
