Picked up tickets and read customs brochure on what you can't bring into Australia. When I compare it to almost everything I would like to buy as gifts from the Geneva website, which is a lot, there are only glass and plastic/vinyl that would not need to be declared. Should I just pack everything I buy at Geneva (or anywhere else if it contains wood, bamboo, banana, bone, feather,wool, shell, coral, fur, animal hide, hair, plant material, straw, bark, palm fronds, leaves cane, rattan, flower petals, dried flowers etc. etc.) in one bag and hand over the entire bag to customs? The way I shop it could take them a while to go through it all. Also are the items marked, if something like a tray is woven, how do you know what it is woven from?
I guess what I am asking is just how diligent should you be in deciding what is to be declared and what is not.
