If you want to buy books DVDs etc. I would buy them from the UK and have them posted to Australia. This is what I do as they normally work out cheaper that way than actually buying them here. Try amazon.co.uk or the bookdepository.co.uk (this one free postage anywhere in world).

If you're after something like a nice gift basket I use this company a lot for my clients. Great service and amazingly nice baskets filled with goodies.

Amazon is your friend.

If you live in Australia, order goods from the UK (paying in £'s) and have them delivered to your address, do the customs charge an import fees ?

Not unless they think its a commercial import. Personal use stuff is OK.

Have a look at Amazon, but also at www.bookdepository.co.uk - they don't charge shipping

Anything up to A$1,000 is imported without duty. Unlike the UK where pretty much anything imported seems to get duty, VAT and admin fees added on top.

Cheers
