    Default What last-minute tax-free foreign purchases have you made?

    Tomorrow is the last day we can buy things from overseas and not be charged GST... so what sort of things (and from where) have you bought in the last few weeks to beat the tax?
    (you can mention non-TFs, but try to include something TF related)

    For me, I did the rounds at a few of my regular sources... some probably for the last time.

    Amazon America (3rd party sellers) - Studio Series Thundercracker, TR Ramhorn, Hero Mashers RID Optimus.

    Universal Studios online store - Cyber Battalion Starscream, Universal exclusive Snarl.

    HLJ - SWTF Millenium Falcon, JP Legends Overlord.

    OhMyPrimus - JP Legends Greatshot

    TakaraTomyMall (through WhiteRabbitExpress shipping forwarder) - JP Movie Laserbeak (pink Bumblebee)

    I still want to do a last look over Amazon and Ebay tomorrow... but that will probably be it.

    I ordered an upcoming volume of Lost Light and the next TF IDW Collection volume (and a bunch of upcoming X-Men collections) from Bookdepository. Might have a look on ebay now.

    Mp-711, Mp-10r bape red camo from japan yahoo auctions and Mp-14c from bbts.
    Was really hoping to wait a bit longer but if the gst is added I wouldn’t have been able to afford it.

    From overseas sellers (via eBay) were:

    - Combiner Wars Leader Megatron
    - MS-01 Assault Soldiers by Make Fans Toys (A third party G1 Springer)
    - A copy of "12 Rules for Life" by Jordan Peterson

    List may expand later on today.

    Caution, meet the wind. I just bit the bullet on MP Dirge from BBTS. I figured it's now or never.

    With my (1 item - Wave 3 POTP Scouts) pile of loot chucked in the parcel.


    Eagerly waiting for Masterpiece Meister
