Things like scopes have no duty so the $60 cap before they charge is gst only and hence is a purchase price of $400. (400 x 15% = $60). However once the $60 collection limit is hit they also add about another $50 in bio security levies, so you can pretty much write of a hundy.

    Ive only ever had one package get past them, YMMV
    Perfect explanation!! Exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much
    By law, you are required to turn on your headlights if it's raining in Sweden.

    How the hell am I supposed to know if it's raining in Sweden?

    Yep got the pack and it fits great! Emailed the local firearms office to make sure they didn't forget about my application (haven't received a reply yet, no surprises there) and saw some bloody nice and comfy boots at hunting and fishing today, wasn't sure of the brand tho so wanted to research first. Haha thanks for the enquiry

    Year well the police take there own sweet time...doesn't matter what country your in.
    With boots you have probably seen the links on here and done a fair bit of research.
    My advise...take it our leave it is try on as many as you can! For me it's about 1st comfort, durability 2nd weight.
    Ones that I brought I'm very happy with, my old ones were around 800grams each new ones 600
    I'll see if I can find the link.
    Oh another tip that I use here.
    We have this snobby shop down the road here. Where the services is so bad, they look down there noise at you when you come in the door the second time I went in I thought I'm never going to buy from you! Your over priced and really what's with the attitude.
    BUT! I do use them as a fitting service I go in find the what I want try it on, get the size right.....then walk out
    And buy the bastard on line for a lot less then what this lot sell it for.

    Yea that's the one mate! But they don't have the EN ratings on there from what I can see, only the explanation as to how the ratings work? Haha

    Did u get them to wrap it as a gift so that it could slip through customs?
