Geoff,
Steve is about right...all I say is make sure you dont get it sent via USPS....make sure its sent via private courier like UPS or fedex...otherwise you will have a heap of forms to fill out asking information that you probably dont know....private couriers do the customs forms for you....you pay a few more dollars for the service but it's money well spent..trust me.
I made the mistake with my cooled modded camera just recently...this is the process I went through using goverment run post.
Item arrived in Brisbane awaiting clearance.
received a letter 5 days later requiring me to fill out all these forms includding codes for the type of Tax I need to pay on the type of item sent......there is literaly thousands of codes.
Fax or take the forms into a custom office...wait another 5 days for them to ring you to tell you what amount they are debited your credit card.
Then release the parcel to Aust post...then delivered 2 days later.
Virtualy 10 days later then it would have taken if I used a private courier...not worth all the BS...use a Private courier and get them to do all the running around.
