Yeah, customs can be a bit painful at times. Some of the better/bigger kickstarters have had arrangements with logistics firms such as DHL to absorb the customs fees when more than a certain amount, and thankfully Australia has a reasonably import duty free threshold ($1000) as opposed to that stupid £15 (or £39 gift) that the UK has. However, our money grabbing politicians are seeking to end that... as they feel why shouldn't they also get more money for doing nothing (except what our taxes already pay them to do).
btw Luke, in case you didn't know, whilst having a Paypal account can be beneficial, it is no way required to pay for stuff by paypal (unless the payment recipient has change the default settings from optional to required)... you can pay using a credit or debit card using paypal without an account.
