    There is a duty tax on anything above AUD$1000 "this also apply to more than one parcel arriving at the same time that totals AUD$1000+ to the same address".

    AUScustoms:When buying over the internet

    sorry again for this i was very concerned and just had to make sure that some knew this...
    I pretty sure you guys don't need to worry about that...

    A couple of weeks after I got a package from the US with 5 TFs in it, I received an invoice requesting $50-something for a "customs inspection fee or something like that".

    I threw the invoice in the bin & I never heard anything about it ever again...




    So the lesson for today is,

    1/ Don't fret &

    2/ Don't do what Pulse does...

    Mate, that was like 5 years ago...

    I'm sure if they really wanted their $50, they would have sent me another invoice by now...

    I considered that dude, but I saw this order. I also have a bit of trouble paying for stuff when it comes to over seas stuff. As, I don't have access to a credit card, and I cant get much time off work to send money orders

    Sorry to go off topic again...

    That could of been "if i remember correctly" when customs....

    Used to add Duty of 5% to the total value of the item/s and cost of shipping.

    Then added the Duty on to the item/s and shipping total and and then put 10% GST on to that.

    and if it turned out if the Duty and GST was below $50 (or just under that ) there was no fee.

    Hey everyone. Sorry I've not been around, but had a busy weekend and am inundated with work right now. I won't be able to manage this order, so someone else will need to please take the reigns.
