I buy runners from Gumtree all the time. Daughter and I burn thru about 4 or 5 pairs a year each and wife about 2.
There are loads which have been tried on, used once and sold as they don't fit properly. Usually get them for $50 instead of $200
I don't go running or attend gym so don't need runners.

It's all because of people like Harvey Norman.
He doesn't like competition.

I have never owned or worn a pair of thongs either.
This sort of thong ... not the under-garment.

You should be paying GST, to even the playing field with domestic businesses who import your consumer products for you. Amazon is just being a little bitch. I bet they'll be back once they think their stunt has run its course.

If you think a global retailer is about to open themselves up to be an international tax collector for exported items for every single country, you've got alot to learn about how business is done across borders. Yeah...not going to happen.
Although I can see them arms-length investing in a US reshipper for an easy 10% profit increase on the Amazon sell price that the govt has provided the market research for. Easy money.

Not true IQ,
I have a yearly subscription to Norton Internet Security.
They are now charging me 10% GST.
Microsoft is doing the same with my Microsoft Office subscription.
