M: Good morning. Can I help you?
W: Yes. I want to send this parcel to Australia.
M: That’ll go as a small packet.
W: I’d call it a small parcel.
M: Let’s see how much it weighs. It might have to go as a parcel. No, that’s all right, it’s just 500 grams.
W: How much is it going to cost?
M: A fortune, I should think. It’s $10.50 the first 10 grams, and then so much for each 10 grams afterwards.
W: Isn’t there a cheaper way?
M: You’ll have to go to the parcel counter if you want it to go that way.
W: I just don’t want to be in the poor house trying to send a few old coins and stamps to the old country.
M: Have you put a customs label on it?
W: I had all that at the last post office when I went to enquire about sending the stuff in the first place.
M: Did you say coins? Did you tell them you wanted to send coins?
W: No. It’s a present. My brother’s a collector in a small way.
M: You can’t send coins unless you’ve got a special permit from the customhouse.
W: Special permit! My brother doesn’t need a special permit to collect.
M: No, but you need one to send anything from here.
W: All right, I’ll go to the customhouse to ask for the permit. Thank you anyway.
M: My pleasure, madam.
