Re: Bye Bye Decent Shopping - Amazon to block Australian customers
So currently all books, dvds, and cds are shippable from UK Amazon to Aus. Lets see if that remains the case in 4 weeks time........
And what the is the answer tor the issue of people in Aus wanting to to use the UK site to get goods delivered to UK residents as gifts.....because the stuff I want to buy as gifts doesn't appear on Amazon Aus, even without thinking of the horrific shipping cost.

That would apply as much to Australians trying to get things shipped here, as it would to your rellies trying to get gifts delivered direct.
However, the thing I'm not totally sure on, but think ends up differently, is gifts to you from the UK. Since it's a GST not a duty, I think it might only be due when a company sends you something. In theory a person to person gift should be OK. Time will tell.
For the little they will get from this, I just wished they had taxed Gina properly. Gerry Harvey needs to get strung up for this.

How do the likes of Harvey and Smith have this sort of power? It's outrageous.

So, a bunch of people winging that they can't help prop up a company that is regarded as the most immoral in the world.
If ever we needed to understand how civilians around Belson were able to carry on, this thread displays it - "Incan save a few dollars and happily ignore everything it does"

Edit: Things may now be ok with Edge. Still issues with Win 8.
