now............. what to do with myself and the wabit????

[Jarred]

I'd say thats a pretty good price. And with the conversion rate as it is., you don't get ripped off too hard!

[Oneofthegreats]

Nice buying Dom.

Bit over $1000 for new wheel's!

[Tim]

back again got an email from the guy and all up the wheels are $900 USD including shipping

not a bad price considering the style and apparently the quality of the wheels are flawless coming from a few vortex guys in the states

wabit

see if you can get him to declare their value as $800US including shipping on the export papers. Otherwise youre gonna end up having to pay extra when they get here!

[WABIT]

whats the import tax rate that i have to pay??

[DubSteve]

Too much Dom not worth it just get them to do what Tim said otherwise you will be paying way to much.

[Valver.]

Well they're not US made, so if they're over a grand in our money, you'll get 25% (10 gst, 15 in import tax). US made stuff over a grand in value will get GST only.

Still cheap in any case, though

[WABIT]

ok well here's the situation

i paid $480 USD for the wheels but shipping is an extra $400USD odd therefore making my total to $900 USD

do i still have to pay tax

Nah you'll be sweet - Aslong as they didnt put over $1k on the valuation or customs don't decide they're lying about $400.

[Tim]

customs decides when they come into the country based on the current exchange rate. If it works out to be valued over $1000AUD then u will have to pay duty. unless youre really really lucky

[WABIT]

well the wheels turn out to be around $550 aussie dollar pluas say another 500 aussie postage
