A large envelope to Australia costs $1.24 minimum, which covers 1oz. If it was 2oz, it would be $2.08

For comparison, the same envelope to Canada would cost $1.09 minimum, or $1.29 if it was 2oz.

This brings back the original point that some of us were making - different countries of destination, different postage rates. What you normally use to send to one country does not necessarily cover what it costs to send to another.

There are different postage rates for different countries of destination.
There isn't a single standard "international price" for mail.
