Yeah tell me about it. I was all set to buy a forum members' DA*300 but in the 2 weeks we talked the A$ dipped and just tipped it into Duty + GST tax territory.
It was a great buy at 950 USD + 50 frt to OZ = A$ 962 a couple of weeks ago. Now the value tipped over A$1000 so add duty and tax and for me it's A$1250-ish from A$200 in fees/taxes
Feel bad for the poor guy as I we both left it hanging for a week and that delay meant he lost the sale.
