Curious if it would be feasible to buy and keep registered in NSW, even if you live in Vic, if that would skirt the usage tax. Yes, I know...

Wrong; if you actually try to purchase it, it's either $50 from China with $0 postage, or ~$30 from AU with ~$30 postage. There seem to be...

askvictor replied to CharityCase on Mint Non-Stick Coating Saute Pan 30cm with Lid $6 (Was $24) @ Woolworths
High heat on the stove is more the problem. If you're not going for dishwasher safe, just get cast iron.

Aluminium body. Suitable for induction stoves. These contradict each other (unless it also has a steel plate in there somewhere?)

Yep, same deal as with cast iron. Season it, don't soak for too long, reseason when it looks dry.

I'm guessing it's because I bought mine refurbished from overseas.
