Quote from: p1klzOur customs are good at their job I'll give them that much but it really is a myth that Australia is hardest place of earth to ship to. And it certainly doesn'y justify the price gouching you see around here. The thing is it's just not a question if the Customs Agency itself is the best in the world or not. Australia has the capability to route all international mail through very few centers ( I've even seen some suggest it all goes through one single facility :o ) and there's obviously no way of smuggling by land without going by boat first. That coupled with the laws which have been enacted which seem to be some of the worst in the world all combine into this current situation.The only thing I find strange in this whole equation how come the demand is so high in Australia at all? From the thread Domestic Listings per Country/Region on Silk Road: http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=176825.msg1366571#msg1366571 one can see Australia has roughly 6 % of all listings on Silk Road which is the sixth highest of any Region.
