That depends Frankie, I often have parcels of R/C stuff come in from Hong Kong... Up aroung the $1k mark per package, and I've never been hit with import duty or gst. (The HK shop Lies on the packing slip for me.. shhh)
He's got bed bugs, ticks and nits if he scratches then I itch.

You'll never be alone if you give the dog a bone.

I once bought a soccer jersey from the UK, it was AU$120. They charged me AU$140 in customs duty. :x
It was DHL express thoguh. :x
They're also a little bit out on pricing. Just look about for the air intake mods that they can offer. Regals charging $110GBP. ppfftt... I mean I rate them highly but they charge at a premium for things offered at other places much cheaper.
Oooh eck i didn't mean to incite an economics argy bargy lol. just thought you might like a look and compare to the companies you have over there

Given that we dont have any real dedicated GMH tuners over here its a fair comment. We dont even have anyone with reasonable stock/pricing of Astra spares hence why most of us buy from the UK.just thought you might like a look and compare to the companies you have over there
Things tend to be an absolute rip off especially when exchange rate is taken into account. But then again another incident springs to mind where Holden wanted $400 for a centre console surround that goes around the A/C and RG sell it for $30GBP. Thats a lot of import duty. Go figure!
