Yes. I have 3 and they are outstanding.

But I wanted to upgrade the 'scope on my 7/08 from a top end of 12x to a bit more and didn't want to spend the USD750 of the Tract so have just ordered this from Cameraland NY. It will be pretty good value even after the USD conversion and adding GST/fees. About $800 NZD landed:

No gst or duty on that transaction.
Since the total value of the goods is less than or equal to $1000, the duty is waived.

Yay. That makes it even less spendy and better value.

Unless something has recently changed, then the threshold for attracting duty is goods (including shipping) to the value of about $400nzd.

They don't claim GST if the amount payable is under $60nzd. The threshold to meet the $60nzd in duty is about roughly $400 in goods/shipping.

So to summarize, a $1000 order from overseas should certainly attract duty - if they find it.
Orders under $400 will not usually attract duty, as the duty payable is under $60. They don't bother collecting duty under $60 as it costs more in logistics trying to collect it than they make from it.
