i have been comparing some stuff from aliex and ebay and realised that all the sellers in au are somehow all located in chullora nsw and have around similar stock and similar colors and everything on items are they doing some sort of middle man trading or something ?
my question still remains tho who brings it under 1000 different accounts :)
Most of the sellers who sell cheap Chinese junk on eBay are usually drop shippers

Most of the time it's Gerry Harvey.

Chullora have nothing to do with the ebay accounts. Chullora is the return address.
And when you complain to eBay that the item took far longer to arrive than "expected", and was listed as being in Australia, but when you type the "Auspost" tracking code into 17track it shows it was actually mailed from Shenzhen… eBay "support" respond with something along the lines of "but did you get it and is it broken"?
No, but that's not the point! Bunch of (profanity).
That's where Australia Post - Sydney Parcels Bulk Lodgement centre is located. Quite a number of items that get into NSW usually go into this sorting centre. So if they come from overseas, there's a chance they'll pass by that centre, so I guess it's a half-truth that yes, your item did come from Chullora (roll safe.jpg)
You can avoid the overseas GST charges if you list your items as being listed in Australia rather than China (Overseas) and also eBay will give your customers a much shorter delivery deadline if the item is 'in Australia'. It's a bit of a hack really so if a item is listed as being located in Chullora, perhaps allow a leeway of 2-3 extra weeks to the shipping timeframe…
