They'll Be Calling You Radical

Ok from the USPS site:

Prohibitions for Australia

*Coins; bank notes; currency notes (paper money); securities of any kind payable to bearer; traveler's checks; platinum, gold, and silver (manufactured or not); precious stones; jewelry; and other valuable articles are prohibited.
Fruit cartons (used or new).
*Goods bearing the name "Anzac."
*Goods produced wholly or partly in prisons or by convict labor.
Perishable infectious biological substances.
Radioactive materials.
Registered philatelic articles with fictitious addresses.
Seditious literature.
Silencers for firearms.
Used bedding.


Can anyone explain the ones I've marked with Asterisks? They don't make sense to me. I get 'money' but stuff like valuable articles?!

Apparently these are prohibitions for them sending to us.

Ups just doesn't want to be responsable for anything so as long as all you mail out is blank sheets of recycled paper (free of any hazardous chemicals). You're good!
