My understanding is there is a lot of guys on here ordering from there. With the strong dollar you're crazy not to. Fairly quick service too from what I have read. A few members have orders wheels, rims, etc etc. |

Spend less than AU$1000 on any shipment - No GST. |

Is it how much we spend on the products or the products and postage? |

Value of the products alone. Postage is a service provided by a separate entity and not included in the value of the goods. |

Have a word to 74 snail, you dont have to pay any import taxes on products labeled reproduction parts for vehicle parts 30 years or older. So you can spend $4000 and dont have to pay taxes. |

However, if you go over $1000 value and get pinged by customs, they will charge import duty on the goods + GST on the total including the postage/freight. Ask me how I know... (and back then the limit was nowhere near this high). |

Don't ask them to falsify the value on the customs declaration, its fraud and a lot of retailers get understandably narky if you ask them to break the law. However if you explain the rules to them they can often find a way to either ship them in seperate consignments a few days apart (you might still get pinged if they arrive too close together), or to give you enough of a 'discount' to get you under the $1000 mark.

Ask nicely and they might take $51 AUS off the price. They do this sometimes for people over here because then they are still making a profit |

Also bear in mind that they have a Value Added Tax over there - same as out GST - so make sure you're looking at the non-tax price as it will be lower for us buying from here instead of their domestic customers. |
