If you're buying something big/heavy/expensive the chances of avoiding import duties/customs charges/tax etc are virtually nil. I looked at importing an industrial sewing machine (head unit only) from China as prices were very good. By the time I'd added shipping/import duty/customs fees/GST/the various charges for trans-shipping here/brokerage etc there was no cost advantage. I ended up buying local at about the same price.
