When you give your AU coins to people making jewellery, it'll end up in another Aussies hand.
They resell these coins at slightly lower RP rate back to Aussies.
So if you pay 30,000 rp and $4 in AU coins you have basically paid 50,000 + (assuming AU -> 5000 rp resell).
Cheers, DB.
PS. I always return to AU with 80-100 in AU coins :) nothing like making a couple of bucks on the side.
