Seems likely, Fed and State tax summit have leaned that way. It was mentioned before hte sumit, and now seems likely going by the media reports. Funny, Gerrry Harvey and the like pushed for it when Gillard ran the show but she said no to it. It costs more to collect and police than it brings in so there was little point. The proposal is now to have the foreign seller add the charge into the price and I guess pass it back to Govco.
FKN insanity !
Local retailers dont get to rip us a new one , so they want the Gov to FK us over ..
They want overseas retailers to collect GST - Good luck with that one Commies ...
Think about it , why did we bother with so many wars about freedom , and now we are just giving freedom away for nothing !
I guess things do change !
Perhaps we should start a campaign to avoid certain Traitorous retail outlets ..
I still fondly remember 500 to 1000% mark ups before the internet ...
Aaaah the good old days you got to rip off locals big time .
For those that have trouble soldering like I did stumbled upon solder flux in a syringe at Jaycar about 12 months ago. This product transformed my soldering overnight. Lately it appears to have gone of so decided to purchase another syringe full. Bugger, Jaycar dont carry it anymore. Alltronics was just down the road so decided to pay them a visit. Yep they have it and though the picture is different to Jaycars the item itself is identical. A quick test and it works perfectly.
I only mention this as I guess I'm not the only one that has trouble soldering. The other thing that helped immensely was to change the pointy tip with a chisel tip on the soldering iron. This change alone made a massive difference in the ability for the iron to hold heat and solder larger items.

U dont use resin cored solder ?
Just depends on what your soldering as well ..
Solder does not take well to oxidized surfaces , so you need to clean the surface ( A good flux can do that - but they are evil ) .
The other way is to manually clean the surface ( sharp knife or something - file perhaps )
If you need strength - silver solder ( will need flux for silver solder )
If you need resin cored solder - I have some ..

All goods bought overseas to incur 10pc GST (from 01Jul17 or ?earlier) | afr.com 
The design is very good, life how many hours?
@ old4570. Yes I've always used resin solder of different varieties. The flux and the bigger tip were like the missing ingredients that made it work.
I’ve bought a few of the Nitecore Tube lights for around AU$8-9 each…
Planning on keeping one and using the rest as partial Xmas gifts along with some other stuff.
Ebay seller " supersports600" currently has a discount on 4 x LG 18650 MH1 3200mAh batteries.

Ask Admin to set up an Aussie subforum.
You could try the off topic/ chatter section, champion ;)
