OOS - Seems to be a good deal? $6 Auspost shipping fee bring total to $1005. No NZ tax as well.

Was given a total charge of $1005. ALso did not have a note that says it’s coming from NZ unlike the others
Does that mean if it indeed does come from NZ that the courier might not release the parcel until you pay the tax?
I believe if it is less than $1000 there is no tax involved. Can someone with the knowledge confirm this?
@seethroughthong: I'm just not sure if the shipping is also included as asset value.
@seethroughthong: Was discussed in this thread yesterday https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/659454
If you look at the description of the 3070ti for example it states:
Important: Orders for this product ship from our New Zealand warehouse and orders for Australia or other countries may be liable for additional taxes, customs fees and duties. These fees are not included in the advertised price and are estimated in the checkout. Customers purchasing within New Zealand are not affected.
So it seems like this one is ok, but not sure if it is impacted by the shipping tipping it over the $1k. Might want to consider these from PLE if doubtful? Looks like stock are coming in

@Xcell: According to this article it seems shipping/freight costs are not included

@seethroughthong: I got my card for 990 from NZ and no taxes / charges were made
@boydbino: Thanks for the info! But we were discussing if shipping costs is included in the threshold. Because my total value was $1005 with shipping, but without shipping it will be $999.95. Did your total value (incl shipping) exceed $1000 for your order? Thanks
@seethroughthong: My shipping value was above 1000
it does, states it right there in the shipping tab
Delivery Times
Orders ship from our fulfillment partner Mighty Ape. Their warehouse is based in New Zealand with daily flights across the Tasman with Australia Post.
What I bought mine for $1400 :(
Thats walk in to MSY and pay for it prices..
Yikes
you should be prepared to make a loss in the current market.
Not believing my eyes because of low price , purchased it straight away. Status was in stock, I even took a snip of the page.
Received confirmation, but no order updates ever since, its been two days.
Now, I see it has disappeared completely from their website, along with most of other cards.
No replies from their help centre.
Is this a fraud or false advertising?
Anyone purchased from them before?
Should I start legal action?
It’s part of MightyApe which is a super legit business in NZ. Give it a few more days to see if there’s any communication. I’ve bought one as well but I’m not too worried as I paid with PayPal and I understand that there’s a possibility there’s a high influx of orders (as everywhere else). Regarding the cards disappearing, I saw that yesterday and realised they do that if it goes OOS. If you have any updates, could you please post here?
Sure, and you too, please post update if you receive news.
Hi Dimitri, I've got a reply from them and they said they have held shipping because they had to do a manual security check as this was the first time I have purchased from them. They said they have approved it and will be shipping it out soon. Hope yours is the same!
Hi,
just received a message that order has been shipped. Hope you're getting yours as well.
That's a relief, as I've been stupid enough not to use PayPal this time.
I thought they still come from NZ?
