Shipping to Oz via USPS at $45us, @ 0.86c = $285 AUD all up. Not bad.
Fairly skinny 9mm rope though, wouldnt want to pull a heavy truck with it.
If the SWL is 1/3 of the maximum breaking strength, 2.5t is about the limit.
Correction anyone? Dont have experience with rope myself....

10mm x 28 m, same breaking strain, etc etc $289. Local business, local warranty if any issues i guess.

$289 for rope, $79 for hawse, whatever for hook, plus delivery. Less than $300 Aussie from the states to my door. I win.
