In a twist, I had been considering buying TV goods from Bintel and have them ship them back to the USA to me.
Their pricing has been pretty sharp (at least from my perspective)...
Since I have an ANZ bank account and since it is a sale leaving the country I can get the GST back...before the recent currency movements by my math I was a couple of bucks to the good in doing it this way...especially as most of the AUD$ were converted from USD$ when the exchange rate was the other way around...
I since I saw a couple of the Bintel guys at NEAF I could have had them deliver the stuff too!
If only I had bought a house at .47 exchange rate...
