    No Craig you're not wrong. I did mention the duty tax as well which is 5%. So roughly speaking 5% on $2393=120 + 10% gst so another $132 on the total price. Still $2764'ish (cause customs use the US to AU conversion on the shipping date, not the purchase date) still looks the goods

      Yep... orders under a grand get through the system no worries. BUT if customs are savvy enough to see the goods coming in separate consignments and realise they are all for the same thing, they'll getcha! :evil:

        Importing multiple items from the same vendor will see you stung for the total value of all goods.
        I wouldn't try to avoid the tax using multiple packages. Customs now have systems in place to catch you in this regard, and when they send you a "show cause" letter down the track, you will be required to pay the outstanding fees and taxes with added penalties unless you can show them that your transaction was squeaky clean.

        This fact sheet from AQIS explains the tax and fee obligations. http://www.customs.gov.au/site/page5549.asp
        If you import the lockers honestly, you will still end up better off price wise when all the taxes and fees are paid.

          Exactly what I was trying to get at... why do ARB as an Australian company that manufacture them here (I know the whole labour costs etc but still) have their prices so much higher, that you can import their products from the US and still get a better deal after the freight and tax is included. Just silly..

            Mate let us all know a) if you go ahead and place the order with 4wheelparts and b) if you don't mind letting us know the totals of parts then what out lovely gov want out of you as well

              ARB may be Aussie but their products are maufactured in China, right near where all the TJM stuff and other competitors products are made. Sometimes, depending upon the product, theyt are made on the same production lines!!

                Hmm that brings up another possibility..we have an office in Beijing..might see if I can get one of the guys to see if the *real* ARB items are for sale there somewhere and see if there is more of a price break.

                  If you have any luck, please consider letting us in on a group buy. :-)
