Did I hear this right ?...... As reported on 3AW radio this aftternoon , an  Ebay representitive said they will block  Australian buyers from purchasing overseas so that eBay will not have to collect the 10% GST for the Australian government as of July 1st

You also can't buy from Amazon US from July 1st only the Australian site which hasn't got much variety and anything from a US seller is rather pricey on the Aus site. Shame but a sign of the times.

You can actually buy from Amazon US.

The only thing you can't do is use an Australian delivery address, which is easily addressed (no pun intended).
