How much must a parcel be worth before HM Customs bother collecting the
taxes though?
   I believe the official answer is $50 worth of taxes and duties, which
allows me to import 3 bottles of liquor when i fly in.
   So at 10%, an order would need to be broken down into sub-$500 parcels.

   Will this be any different under GST?
