Ey,
Just a thought. There seems to be a lot of confusion from some people as
to whether TIB orders are being sourced from within .au or from overseas.
It seems people are making orders in either ignorance or the belief that
customs will magically waive the GST due on imports.
Speaking from experience, extracting quarantined hardware from customs is
extremely time-consuming and costly, and it's more likely than not that
your attempt to smooth-talk your way out of the GST due on the shipment
will fail. Storage costs, customs broker fees and GST add significantly to
the cost of imported hardware.
Can TIB be changed or modified to indicate if items on bulk orders are
sourced within/outside .au and are therefore already including a GST
component in the price? At this stage the TIB only discloses delivery
costs.
