Hi..No import tax here in NZ..I just found an extreme example on Ebay......I recall seeing on Ebay a very small pipe elbow for US$1.30 and it had $132 freight on it ...I can only presume that because the USA is so big with a strong internal market ..International trade is not a concern ....I just cannot afford to buy from the USA and its all based on shipping cost ...and they go on about Free trade when it seems a economy based international carrier is what is required....Now I can recall years ago buying many things from America and although shipping cost was high it was not an issue...Was it USPS that had what I would call reasonable shipping costs...Never mind ...Thats why NZ is full of goods from one country ..
I am trans[planting my Tasty Toms today into a new freezer and although I have soil warmth its now the light that worries me...
Cheers Ron
