A question for those more clever than I: Ive always wondered, how does buying something worth more than the $700 threshold in duty-free work when you bring it back in to the country.
I.E. Duty free in AKLD airport an ipad mini costs $900 ish, how does this work (ie duties/customs etc.) when bringing it back into NZ? such as buying it at AKLD dutyfree when you come back to NZ from overseas.
I always thought you got duties on something over a set value when bringin it through from dutyfree, so how can buying something quite expensive be seen to be better than paying retail?
thanks
