Hi guys

This could be just 'hoping for a desired outcome', but I reckon that there is no duty payable on
phones imported into Australia.  When I emailed Australian Customs (trying to get them to have
sympathy on the bulk order thing), they only mentioned GST.  See below.

Also, regarding postage, I think it would be slightly more accurate to use UPS postage calculator
(instead of Australia Post) as the phones are shipped from USA. Although, when I did so I got much
the same answers.

Cheers
Dennis

Dear Dennis

Thankyou for your email regarding the importation of phones to
Australia.

In response, the phones would attract GST at the time of importation as
the phones are considered to be one consignment. As this consignment has
a value of greater than AU $1,000 GST would be applicable.

Sincerely
