Cubic Hare 494 Posted August 25, 2015 Looks like the low value (under $1000) GST levy on overseas purchases has a few flaws. I for one would hate it to be implemented. http://theconversati...purchases-46460 http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/gst-threshold-for-imported-online-purchases-could-be-reduced-to-0-warns-joe-hockey-20150727-gil4qa.html Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trailboss99 996 Posted August 25, 2015 Only three holes? It's one bloody great hole as far as I can see. I hope they do bring it in, it will stop them bringing in one that actually works. This one doesn't stand a chance, what OS supplier (other than Amazon et al) is going to register? He can't make them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cubic Hare 494 Posted August 25, 2015 What about gifts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSav 2 Posted August 25, 2015 Technically they shouldn't be able to tax a gift with any value as it is not a purchase made by the receiver. I am sure that wouldn't stop them though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
