According to seller no import tax payable. The total price already inclusive.
Also Xiaomi Mi Notebook Pro 15.6" i7-8550U 16GB DDR4 RAM 256GB MX150 $1387.96 after coupon code.
o.o i love the store name
Anything over $1000 & it will spark customs' interest…
Unless of course the seller puts like $999 on the shipping invoice…
If you contact the seller, they will reply that the total cost already includes the GST
Is shipping from China or Aus? I very much doubt an overseas seller would pay Aus GST…
@Bunsen: Hong Kong.
If you contact the seller, they will reply that the total cost already includes the GST
@Bunsen: @boohooimissout: yeah but nah… They wouldn’t be paying AUS import duty, trust me… Go for it though if u believe them…!
@Bunsen: @boohooimissout: Prolly not as the purchaser pays the import duties. IDK, They might do dodgy customs form to get around the duty like putting ‘Gift’ or ‘used’ or less than $1000AUD incl shipping…
All I know is Customs check anything >$1000…
@Bunsen: @Gristy: Yep, seen that from ebay.us, it is actually specified though in the postage section & highlighted as “import duties & other charges”. This particular ebay auction doesn’t show this..
Personally, I’d hate to buy something expecting to pay $x then get a call from customs saying they wont release the item until u pay a further 10% import duty…
Only my 2c & raising awareness for the OZB’s that may purchase this item…

Listing clearly states: No GST or customs fees payable by the customer on items under $1000 shipping to Australia
You are on your own if you are charged GST at the border, regardless of what the seller has told you.
I wonder Ebay/Paypal's refund of costs position if you directly ask & get a reply back from the seller that they guarantee no GST/customs?
If you contact the seller, they will reply that the total cost already includes the GST
Are they providing a GST tax invoice and trading from a GST registered company? If so, even better.
If they aren't, the seller is misleading you and you will be slapped 10% at the border, of which eBay will tell you is your responsibility (been through this before plenty of times).
@MorriJ: I don't know, all I know is that they said no import tax, all inclusive.
Import tax is payable as it is over 1000. Misleading description
It's not. If you contact the seller, they will reply that the total cost already includes the GST.
Might be best to ask them to fudge the price on the package for you. I've never asked, but the 2 items I've purchased from China over aud$1000 had been marked around $970, which at most was a $900 fudging.
You seem to fudge a lot.
Just a reminder OP: your deal posts need to have the seller's or vendor's name in the title.
Thanks Scrimshaw.
Is there any reason why the developer can't automate this?
If that's too hard, why can't the developer separate the fields to three: title, price, vendor.
Seems very straight-forward to me.
Just a suggestion.
Cheers
I'm not a Web Developer so I can't answer that question, but for any suggestions or features that you want to see implemented on Ozbargain you can start a new discussion topic here or you may also just comment here to get Scotty's attention.
User interface updates for the Deal Submission page are sort of in the pipeline (with a low priority), however I am not part of the development team so I can't tell you exactly when it will happen (or how soon).
Thanks mate!
Says there are not GST or import charges if the item is under $1000 in the delivery section
If you contact the seller, they will reply that the total cost already includes the GST
Why don't you just post the screenshot of the confirmation from the seller regarding Australian import duty so everyone knows this is a legit deal!?
How do I post pictures
I have uploaded it
Nice post, OP. Good price for a door-to-door purchase on the Xiaomi Notebook. Did you get one?
Nope I don't like the no warranty condition
