Bugaboo Donkey?

[Mrs P]

Mother Goose someone mentioned a Facebook group page earlier that might be helpful. Apparently noone has been charged GST yet, and if it comes in more than one package then customs may not catch on!

Mother Goose my Donkey is en route to australia and as far as I am aware no one has yet reported being charged the Duty or import tax on the the pram - that I've heard of anyway

I will keep you informed on my progress when it arrives - but I'd say this would e quite hard to calculate without knowing exact number of boxes it comes in, how the value of the pram is 'reported' on the accompanying paperwork etc. My DH works closely with shipping and freight around the world - and he seems to think we shouldn't have a problem just based on the nature of the product. However in a week or so i will be able to tell you exactly how it all goes for me! Fingers crossed! If we did get charged - I reckon it would be about 10% of the purchase price of the pram...

Melbel your my new capsule guru!! I've never heard of the safety first capsule - can you tell me more?

Mother Goose,

I just wanted to give you a quick update - have my Donkey arrived today from previously mentioned overseas website purchase. I am assuming the other half will be on it's way (I've emailed them to check but I'm not too concerned - yet) I've been really impressed with the service and follow up and shipping took approximate 9 days from order.

I didn't have to pay any tax or import duty (well yet anyway! ) and I have no complaints. I guess best of all if it ends well - I've saved myself $800 on the Donkey Twin.
