    Luciano - thanks a bunch for that link. I have made an inquiry with them on quantities 1, 2 & 5K. Extremely curious to see the price.

    They've responded, asking me for some further specifics on emitter colour. Judging from their web site, I trust them, they seem reputable, but I'm also a little concerned I have to admit.

    Actually - turns out I"m wrong. Apparently, if the value of the goods is kept under $1,000, there's no tax and no import declaration paper work.

    I have decided to go ahead with the import of these 3mm (5x7 LED matrix displays) They're common cathode types boasting 420mcd of output - fresh from the manufacturer.

    In the deal that I've struck, there's 200 more pcs than what I need. These are up for grabs @AUS $1.25 ea. Minimum quantities of 25 pcs only. There's no further discount for taking the whole 200, so don't ask.

    FYI - 8x8 LED matrix is USD1.25/pc here.

    AUS $1.25 = USD 1.0375
    8x8 is not as widely used as 5x7, bet I could import 8x8 for about the same price.
