Our pollies down under are under considerable pressure from retailers to lower the 1000 dollar gst free imports down to 20 dollars. If you are eyeing up any purchases from the USA etc may be a good time to go for it as looks like this avenue is closing. No doubt there will be additional charges etc added to raise the price still higher. I had thought that in the brave new world the market dictated the price ( as in wages) but evidently I was mistaken!!!!!!
