Most legalities are going to depend on where you reside. I probably don't have too much info for you in this department without doing the research as I mostly try to keep up with the laws in my own state.
I personally trust _nothing_ from Indonesia. Even if some of the things sold by these sellers are legal, I can almost guarantee they are not ethically sourced and killed specifically for selling. This may or may not bother some people, but to me it's a sickening waste. (They are also usually not very good quality as I've known some people who have bought out of curiosity and were horribly disappointed with their purchase.)
Sorry I'm not too much help, hopefully there's still some people hanging around the group that can better answer your questions!
