How many are you planning on buying that you can't carry them home?
I've bought bulk beads in Bali before, silver, glass, resin, wood etc. Never had any trouble just putting them in my luggage or carry on. I wouldn't trust the postal system to send them home. And if you've got so many you can't carry them yourself, postage would work out quite expensive.
