You shouldn't be paying sales tax on overseas purchases, if you are you're getting ripped off.

I agree 100%

How about that, we agree on something :D

By not paying sales tax all you are doing is killing the local supplier. Yes i know it is cheaper overseas but i always try to shop locally. 

I shop locally whenever possible but often what I want isn't in NZ shops

Plus NZ shops are rip off price-wise a lot of the time. How do they justify some of their prices? We are a low wage economy but we are expected to pay through the nose for stuff

Also I am not killing any local supplier if I am getting in stuff that the local supplier doesnt stock and sees no need in stocking
