I've already jumped in and ordered some photography gear:) Firestone bags are another item I'm considering. Price of shocks seems too high to import, but I'm still looking.

I dont know what postage is.

The yanks have a tiny wee problem... they are frantically printing money to try (unsuccessfully) at this stage to stave off deflation (prices falling), and as a result lots of people are mucho annoyed at them! Thus, their currency is quickly devaluing (also good to stop deflation) but that causes lots of other problems... if they put their interest rates up that will help their currency but not help their recovery.... blah blah blah.
If there is a shock (like a major stock market correction which is probably likely) then we could see USD flying back home very quickly which could result in a very rapid appreciation of USD.
So, if you have something that you want you might be able to hang off a bit, but if/when there is a large shock order immediately. :)

I'm yet to hear back about shipping quotes though..will post them up here if I hear back from them
it may be good news if you want to buy some cheap trinkets from the US, however consider this....
....every 1c increase in the value of the $AU against the $US means a loss of $16,000 for each $AU1m you have invested in the US .... :mad:.
....and exporters will be hurting
thats why i have my $1million au invested here in aus :)Quote:
