I import stuff from Hong Kong (50 range) and shipping cost me about $10. Yes you can get it locally, BUT we're talking about Australia ffs, and the only store that sells it has a very steep price. SO in another word, theres nothing wrong with importing a $59 item because it cost like twice as much up here.

Fine talk about quality shipping and stuff BUT shouldn't we the consumer have a choice between crap shipping and high end shipping (some people are prepared to take the risk)?

P.S. Not a rant..i'll probably get something high end anyway to justify the shipping cost.
