Hey CP, this might interest you ----> http://about.usps.com/publications/pub141/australia.htm
So if you have a friend or relative here in the US, it might be worth the extra time to have one of them buy and ship small items like CPUs to you. No duties for gifts valued at $1,000.00 or less. It is at least worth researching
Edit: This may not hold as it looks like the US Dollar is gaining on the AUD
