FedEx. 6 pounds. Shipping US$85. Shipped Friday, arrived Tuesday. Declared value under threshold.

Packed immaculately as always. Time from request to ship was one week.

Going to request shipping of a similar parcel in the next week.

Shipped Tue through FedEx ICP the cheapest option. Arrived today 5.8pounds clicked option to include invoice of itemised declared value from SMC. All above board. Plus a small box of 15 singles that may or may not have included #1 hobby chases of 23-24 season. @Iron Clad Lou Do try it !! (nfi why an old Dilmah tea ad came into my head)

So if you wanted to legit buy a case or box from US over 1000 AUD, you would have to:

Buy your product ($830)
Pay your shipping ($275)
Attain a import broker
Pay the brokerage fee ($125)
Pay the GST ($110)
Pay the import processing fee ($50 or $90)

So best case, a 550USD case or Box would end up costing $1390 from Door to Door?

Am i missing something?

Now if I bought the same item off ebay using international shipping program, would i still be required to get a broker?

Did you have to open a rush request which is $1 fee per item? I opened a regular FedEx shipment request end of May and it still hasn't been processed.

I didn't man, was a regular request.

Odd that yours hasn't bee processed yet. Was it super large or anything different about it compared to a regular shipment? Are you good with credit? Seems a long time to wait, wouldn't hurt to send them a request/email asking for an update of shipment status. I've always found they're responsive to queries.
