  GST has always applied to second-hand goods from GST registered suppliers, so
there's no need for them to separate new and used.

For low value imports, the EDP/online marketplace is deemed to be the supplier,
so if the marketplace is GST registered, second-hand goods will attract GST.

Isn’t BL just the platform on which we buy from registered stores. I’d love to
see how many stores actually qualify for GST inclusion on here (75000aud).

Bit of a shame though I don’t reckon as many people will want to drop 10%gst
5%paypal 1%currency plus shipping on items which had their relevant gst paid
when first bought. Feeding too many mouths with each purchase.

Will there be an option to forego adding gst to some items a user imports? To
my understanding it is not payable on secondhand goods here so I am not sure
where the money is going if we do get charged. Does BL have a link to the tax
code they are working within?
