Hello fellows, I’ve been trying to find somewhere in the us that will ship 20v max skins to aus but am having trouble. Almost every amazon store won’t do it and I want to get a few tools which are not out in aus yet. Anyone know of any shop that will do international shipping?
Don’t know that one….sorry but amazon does full orders I place for tools across the pond..
Ebay (US) is great and quite a few sellers ship to AUS. Be careful though, some charge crazy amounts for shipping, so avoid them.
Only yesterday I nearly ordered a Dewalt DCD791 for $136 AUD delivered. So far it seems much cheaper for Dewalt skins than here AUS. The compact brushless reciprocating saw is also available for about $200 AUD delivered ($300 here in AUS).
I recently bought a Black Subcompact Makita drill and 2.0ah batteries with fuel gauges from US Ebay (both not available in AUS, only a teal subcompact and 1.5ah with no fuel gauge). It only took about 2 weeks for delivery!
I highly recommend US Ebay.
You can also use some of those postal proxy/forwarding services, where you can buy from any US shop and ship to a specified US postal address, and the service will forward it to you in AUS. A mate of mine does this.
I need to set up the Black Market Harbor Freight in Australia. Just need to avoid all the taxes you could probably make a wicked profit and sell to the guys way cheaper than local market prices. You guys do really get hosed on tool prices.

There is a few Aussie sellers on eBay importing 20v max stuff with a warranty. Some stuff is actually cheaper than buying it in the US, I know for a fact, I bought a few 20v max tools while I was in the US, saw these Aussie sellers on eBay months later with it cheaper.
2 weeks that’s ages haha, I got a dch293 in 2 days from the US to Sydney
I’d say 10 days of that delivery time was Sydney to Dubbo :rolleyes:
Is Melbourne Tool Sales one of them? I bought a battery from them and it was a 20V Max. They currently have the DCD791 20V Max for $161 AUD delivered (vs $136 AUD from US Ebay) so not always cheaper. Good to know they usually are though.
On Ebay AUS I got the Dewalt brushless multitool, with tstak, foam liner, accessories (including depth guide) for only $224 AUD delivered from the UK. They were a UK seller that listed on Ebay AUS, but they don’t sell Dewalt very often.

That’s pretty good to dubbo.
Yes mts is one, think they offer 1 year warranty on their tools and 3 months on batteries.
National power tools is another, they offer 1 year on batteries.
That can be taken into consideration when buying eBay Australia 20v max tools vs eBay US 20v ma tools, that these Aussie sellers offer a small warranty
