It is insane. I bet if you order online from EU - they will skin you with customs duties. I always order from EU or make my own. Sending two shafts from Spain cost me $12 in shipping!!!.
From my limited knowledge of the Australian history I learned that originally it was a colony of criminals dumped on a remote continent or something close to that. I guess the fighting spirit was sucked out of you? Taxes are way too high. What do you get in exchange? On the other hand here in the USA my daughter's college was $200K. You can buy a lot of tips and shafts with that

I have bought a few Pelengas tips, they are quite good, one even had a replaceable tip, a tri-cut or a crown. As we don't have any logs to worry about shooting the crown tip is not of much use here.
