I am in Australia and I order mine through GRO (as advised by jax) and at the current exchange rates they cost me about $15-$16.

They come by mail and I haven't lost one yet....

When I first started I was ordering my certificates through a private company and they were about $30 then a helper on GR put me onto GRO.

Hi,

Could someone advise. Am I getting obsessed with collecting Birth/marriage/death certificates?

Lots of people seem to not worry about them, but I really love the information but they are expensive - about $53 to send (via email) so I am a bit sad that I won't be able to call for them. Can anyone advise what I can do - am I being obsessive?

Thankyou Annie :-)
