Australians - Online purchases and the GST
Cyba.Cowboy Mar 26, 2015
Has anyone bought anything more than AU$1,000 online?

I'm looking at a laptop online (a System76 Bonobo Extreme), but I've never bought anything more than AU$1,000 online, so I have no idea how the whole GST thing works (GST is only charged for purchases of AU$1,000 or more)...

Do they just add 10% on top? Do you pay this to the company/manufacturer or to the (Australian) Government?
