QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 14 2013, 09:57 PM) I think I saw someone posting about emailing google to get a proper tax invoice which can then be presented to the customs people at the airport. I'll try searching. Here's a good link for you. Well it's actually two friends. One is staying in australia and he bought it for me, and will be shipped to his address, while the other friend is visiting him and will bring the phone back for me. I'll try getting the GST refund, if not it's still a really good deal. Just hope that it doesn't come with any defects!  http://www.customs.gov.au/site/page4646.asp » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Last time I went to Bangkok they have this VAT claiming counter at the airport. So I figure Aussie is also the same. |

QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 14 2013, 08:13 PM) Got my friend to bring back a 32Gb black from Australia. Shipping is in 4-5 weeks, with a $AUD20 shipping fee. Total is about $AUD469, about RM 1,400. She'll only be back on 1st Jan, damn, such a long wait. Just go to TRS in the airport after check in and show them the phone and receipt. But beware that you cannot claim the GST if you flight would depart in half an hour.Anyone knows how to get the GST refund at the australian airport? That will save me about RM 125. |

QUOTE(kelvinlym @ Nov 14 2013, 08:37 PM) Not too sure about AUS. Typically in the EU, there are many forms to fill or one buys stuff only from shops participating in Global Blue Tax Free service. Just need to pay a small service charge and you pay only for the goods there and then tax free. Usually not available through purchases online, but I can't find info whether it is really not applicable. Eventhough you are an Aussie, as long as you buy the goods as a gift. You are allows to claim the GST.Is your friend just in AUS to visit or does he/she have a resident permit? If he/she has a resident permit, it is already not allowed to get a refund, even if she is buying it for a friend. However, they may charge you back the GST if they random check on you when you fly back to Australia again with the item and receipt. |

I think you better buy from local shop, although that is abit higher than oversea set, but then at least safety lo, if your friend bought only 1 set should be no problem. |

Hey, I am looking for wireless chargers (thinking if I should snatch 3 - home, work, car) and am looking for some suggestions. I see quite a few are hovering around 50USD (LG, Nokia, Panasonic etc.) - and that's too expensive for me.
Here's what I find from Aliexpress. Seems fine, but don't really have experience with any of the Nillkin product. Anyone with any thoughts? http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Nillkin-Bra...1281272880.html |

She'll only be back on 1st Jan, damn, such a long wait. My friend bought an iPhone 5 on Apple's Australia official site and the device is shipped all the way from China. He still able to claim tax refund (roughly 9.1%, its reduced from last year's 10%) but you have to print the right invoice and present it to the officer as a proof at the airport. I did that when I bought my belt last year (But its bought in a physical store). I just ordered mine too. 16GB BLACK. JUST CAN'T WAIT Anyone knows how to get the GST refund at the australian airport? That will save me about RM 125.  This post has been edited by zorbyss.: Nov 15 2013, 12:28 PM |
