Sadly, the high price of climbing gear out here is not due to the applicable GST. Getting gear out here is expensive, the exchange rate slugs you again, and then there's the relatively low rate of sales due to our tiny population being spread out like vegemite on toast! And then, there's flat-out-ripping-people-off! I was quoted last year for an Ushba Hogwauler pulley from a company in N.Z. $350 plus postage and handling! Now when I look back at the site, it's on the clearance list for $180!!!!! Boy was I glad I didn't buy it at the original price! Can anyone comment on import duties etc?
