Australia Post embargo on parcels to USA.
Posted: Tue Aug 26, 2025 7:11 am
I have one last set of Schraeder valve stems and dust caps to sell, but Australia post will not accept any parcels from anybody for postage to USA until the beautiful tariff system is ironed out. At present, 10% is to be applied to all shipments of $800 or more. The kicker is there is a flat $80 charge for any parcels under $800. So my $125 set of stems would now be $205. Nobody knows how the tariff will be collected, who will collect it or forward it to whom. I can understand their reticence to inflict this mess on themselves.
I can still get parcels from the USA, tariff free, but I feel sorry for US residents having to fork out for stuff coming in.
