Admins, do you have email / access big site reps who post here? (July 1st)

Serious question!:

We have until July 01'st before almost all the stuff we buy, will be cranked up 10% in price due to taxes.

It would be very good if these guys basically pumped the deals over the next 2 weeks for us, so we can get one last burst of reasonably priced products.

I know this is tangentially related to the other huge Amazon thread, but I want to just make it clear, it'd be good if these guys got some good deals going now, while they can.

I imagine there will be a big sales drop come July 1'st - this is beneficial for users of the site and them.

(I'm after a low price dash cam, hoping to see one posted before July 1)

    Doubt those from China will be collecting & passing on GST to ATO

      Oh they'll be collecting for sure ;)

        We may find our packages FAR more likely to be withheld by customs.

      eBay is signed on to take this tax, on behalf of the sellers, BOOM - we're stuffed on that one, as default.

      As with Amazon.com.au when they present the USA portal (on the Aus site)

      Even AliBaba has said ok….

      So? :(

      • JimmyF on 15/06/2018 - 21:16

        Most Aus based eBay sellers already have GST in the price you're paying. So no big changes here…

        If you think as they sell on eBay they don't have GST on their prices!? Hahaha yeah JB or thegoodguys do GST free sales on eBay. Sure sure

        • hamwhisperer on 15/06/2018 - 21:32

          Not talking about Aus based selers, stop being so abrasive.

        • JimmyF on 15/06/2018 - 21:37

          @hamwhisperer: says the person making wild claims that everything is going up by 10%.

        • hamwhisperer on 16/06/2018 - 21:01

          @JimmyF: have you been paying attention?

        • JimmyF on 16/06/2018 - 21:42

          @hamwhisperer: No I stopped reading the dribble, didn't want to pay an extra 10% to buy more wipes to clean it up.

    Even if we do have a list of reps, we can't just give you their emails that they used to sign up with Ozbargain as that's a breach of privacy.

    You can instead, just contact them yourself using PM and social media.

      No no no! I mean you guys contact them, I'm not that audacious! - Someone from OzBargain (scotty?) should contact the reps, tell them "it'd be a good time to pump the deals now, while you can"
