Me too. Had to ship them off real quick in case anything else drops. Now I just have to prey they AU$ doesn't drop too much between now and when my POL gets through customs.

Whether the AUD drops or not after you've shipped it should not matter as the exchange rate used is the one on the date of export (http://www.customs.gov.au/faq/DutyGST2.asp#Q106):

How is the exchange rate calculated? Rates of Exchange are determined by the export date of the goods.

and http://www.customs.gov.au/site/page4277.asp

The Customs Value of imported goods must be expressed in Australian currency.

Foreign currency must be converted into Australian currency at the rate of exchange prevailing on the “day of export” of the goods (i.e. not on the day the goods arrive in Australia).

The Exchange Rate is determined by the Chief Executive Officer of Customs and Border Protection.

So as long as it is under AU$1000 using today's exchange rates, you'll be fine (hopefully)
