I bought 6, 10 round magazines.
They each cost $12.49 USD each. At the end of it all I paid $250 AUD to get them delivered to my place.
However you won’t be able to do that as cheap because no matter what license you have 30 round magazines still require an Attorney General Permit and that’s even more stuffing around so expect that cost to passed on to you.
The fact you only want three doesn’t help because some of the permits are fixed costs few so they stay high as well.
Honestly even if you try to do it all by yourself you are only going to come out ahead a couple of bucks and that’s IF you get the permit granted which is an absolute pain.
From someone who’s done it before, don’t bother. Cop it on the chin and pay ignition engineering for the magazines, I guarantee he isn’t making that much on them after the time and effort it takes to get it all sorted plus your buying from a good Aussie buisness.

So they probably entered the country as pinned ten rounders or were bought of a culler who imported them with an AG permit. It also does not change the fact you have zero chance of importing them.
