OBTAINING GOOD QUALITY TANDEM BICYCLES CHEAPLY

Due to the Australian market for tandem bicycles being so small, tandems are materially cheaper in the USA.  Phil Johnston may purchase future tandems directly from large bicycle shops in the USA and freight them to Sydney, incurring associated taxes.  because the differential between prices in Australia and the USA are significant.  Section 2 above notes Tandem East, New Jersey which ships worldwide will supply two 2003 Cannondale RT1000 for USD$2,100 each.  After converting to AUD at 0.74, paying AUD$400 freight from USA to Sydney and incurring 10% GST, this equates to AUD$3,618.
