    I'd say nothing is really worth it with the current dollar.

    If you know your size in Levis and somewhere has a sale by all means but take note their sizes seem to be different to other brands

  • Might want to look at accessories for the Kitchenaid etc, but not the actual mixer as it is the wrong voltage. My brother gets his car parts from over there, but the shipping is prohibitive for anything big. I also find that fisher pens are good value compared to here.

    Oculus Rift dk2 was a great one for this 6-12 months ago. It goes for about AUD $365-$680 on ebay here in Oz, but costs $350 US plus postage in the USA.

    But even stuff like that might not be worth it with the current dollar and shipping forwarder fees.

    baby clothes
    they are ridiculous cheap in usa, and if you are having kids or have friends having kids you can get a load of brand stuff cheap

    I used amazon, purchase CK, tommy, nautical and sports gear cheap, got it delivered free as spent over 150 bucks (and was distributed by amazon)

    http://www.ralphlauren.com/ if you subscribe to their newsletter you will get occasional 20-40% off discount codes to be used in conjunction with other offers and promo's on their site. Compare prices to DJ's and other retailers and laugh. I only wear RL or RL Polo shirts at work and as casual shirts. People think I'm paying $100-300 per shirt - if only they knew the average was closer to $30-40 per item they'd never shop at Myer again. Kids clothing prices when coupons are stacked with major sales are on par with Kmart.

  • Thanks everyone all good stuff keep em coming ..

  • I buy a lot of converse clothing from the USA, although the dollar might kill that deal.

    I usually stock up on revlon and stila make up.

    Calvin Klein is another brand I'll buy from the USA at a fraction of the cost here.
