Well all you folks that don't want to pay duty, excise on things purchased over the internet should just come on down to the land of OZ. If we buy something with a value of less that A$1000 then it just sails through customs. Doesn't matter what mode of carriage is used, post, fedex, dhl etc. You can do it day after day as long it's for personal use

See...somehow that $1,000 limit sounds reasonable to me. It's not like you're going to screw up your national economy by bringing in less than $1K in goods once in a while...

If we could figure out how to sell the idea that a kilt is a religious artifact we might get them all in duty-free.

It couldn't hurt to try. We can tell them the sheep were baptized in Loch Ness by space aliens in Ronald Regan masks and we believe the wool to bring good fortune and stop bullets. The US government has recognized crazier sounding stuff before.
They granted tax exempt status to the Church of Elvis...why not us? 
The grass is greener on the other side of the fence...and it's usually greenest right above the septic tank.
