I've read everything I can find and it seems that any Australian buyers shouldn't have to pay GST on this, as long as: - The AUD is more then 0.7 USD on the day of shipping (so that the $700 card is valued at less than $1000) - Massdrop correctly declares it $699.99 USD and doesn't include shipping in the value (don't see why they would)
My only worry is the the dollar has been falling for a while now, and could slip to < $0.7 by the time it ships. Worst case scenario we pay the extra $100 GST and its the same price as in stores. Would be nice to save the money though.
