Kiwi rider has to sort tax, imports under $NZ 400 were tyax free but a revenue hungry government is rying to change this so that 15% GST applies to all purchases off shore.
For a number of years, for people in the, UK, DK, GR,
They would order new tools, (From the USA, via internet, pay with CC), and have then sent to me, (in the USA)
When I would get them, take them out of their factory packaging, smear a little grease/oil on them, repack them in paper, and include a invoice, for, ‘Used Tools”, and 2.00- 3.00 - 4.00, and ship.
300-400.00 of New tools, suddenly reduced to, ‘Used’ tools, cost 30.00 +/-
Then send the paper that came with them, in a envelope.
Perhaps try that ? Don't know why that wouldn't work with 'parts' also.
(Oh, Leaned how to do that from a person named, Clinton)
