Best Way to order Royal Australian Mint Products?

GritsMan

How do people order new RAM products? I wanted to get the 2007 New Zealand Proof Set and am wondering if it's best to go through the RAM website or someone who carries these products here in the States. Thank you!

Have you considered Downies?:

They sure have some interesting coins!

Royal Scandinavian Mint also has some austrailian stuff...

Ive bought from them a couple time...


PandaAmerica might be another, but I rarely look to them except for images because they're so expensive.

I actually placed an order for the Great White silver coin, as well as the 1/10 Great White gold coin, as my son has an interest in learning all about the shark.
Both coins are minted by the Perth Mint located in W. Australia.

Who did you order from?

And thank you everyone for the input. I'd never even heard of Downies so that's nice to know about. Does anyone order from the Royal Australian Mint or Perth Mint directly? Any problems with them shipping to the U.S.

And just a thought: I think it's very interesting the divergence between the Perth Mint and the Royal Australian Mint. Yet they are both officially sanctioned entities. Does anyone else find this unusual?

I have an order arriving, this month, from the Perth Mint. I subscribed to the Discover Australia series.
Knowing that my order, for that series, will arrive in September, I placed orders, for various other coins, over the last two months, so that everything comes in on one packet thereby reducing shipping costs.

I have also ordered from Downies in the past.

I have never had a problem receiving my order from either the Perth Mint, or, Downies.

Thank you! That's very good to hear!
