I spoke to the owner via SMS...he's a member of the thin blue line which I thought was interesting...and is the reason he's selling??

Anyway, he said it's been "legitimately" imported from Japan. He has all the "appropriate" papers and approvals.

In the same breadth though he said that if you're registering it in QLD or VIC, you'll be fine?? The other states will have "hassles".

I quizzed him further but he wasn't playing the game.

His wants at least $11k for it. I politely pointed out that the Ebay link doesn't have a reserve set so he said he'd change it today.

$11k...that's probably a reasonable price, but I've seen what they go for in Japan, and I don't think he'd have had $5k-$10k of taxes, duties etc to get it here...he might have I suppose.
