We have a 10% GST in Australia which is charged on all purchases made from Australian based entities - online or offline.

There is no GST for goods under $1000 shipped to Australia from overseas however in most cases shipping costs exceed GST anyway.

This woman is clearly not competitive or people would buy from her. Businesses which aren't competitive tend to fail, she'll work that out when she does.

edit: most food is GST free in Australia - so GST wouldn't be her problem.
