Sorry Darryl but it is the law.

If the good or service is delivered after 1 July then GST must be paid (you
cannot pre-pay and avoid GST).

In the case of an imported item the importer must pay the GST for the goods
to be released from customs so it is a case of either the customer
eventually paying the GST or Austrains would have to met it out of their
profit margin and this is most unlikely.
