Thread: GST on purchases from UK etc

    My limited experience is if you buy through eBay it states if the GST is included and that's it. But I'm not a big buyer.

    On a side note, I ordered a small item from Amazon recently. There was no indication of where in the world it was but the seller had a good rap so I went with it.
    Got the email saying my item had been shipped, so I went to have a look at the tracking through Amazon. This stated that ...... "The carrier has not provided tracking details for this shipment at this time." And when I look a little further down I see......."Carrier: Latvian post"

    I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

    I’ve had a few parts from that neck of the woods. It’s fine. Good prices as their market prices are lower

    Agreed. My experience has been the same. OE alternator and starters and related tend to be a good buy from that region.

    I recently used smile.Amazon.com (USA site that supports a charity with a % of your purchase price) and it collected the GST on a purchase as the item was being delivered from USA.

    I am also about to do a order from advanced factors. Is there any discount codes that are still current. I remember reading about them awhile back. Thank.

    Amazon AU. Made sure of address when I joined, guess they just open it up to all sellers.

    A couple of months ago I purchased a whole bunch of parts from the UK from various suppliers. I bought from Island 4x4, LR parts UK, Britcar and Ascroft's. All were excellent to deal with and parts arrived pretty quick. Britcar charged GST at time of purchase but all the others didn't. The Island 4x4 shipment was well over AU$1000 and I had to pay GST separately but the shipping company (DHL I think) contacted me the day before it arrived in Oz and I paid over the phone with no delay to shipment. I spent big at Ascroft's but broke it up into two shipments so that each was sub AU$1000 inc freight = no GST on either. This was still cheaper than a putting it all together as a single shipment over AU$1000 + GST.
