Lets wait until we see the details. I guess I don't mind paying GST on oversees purchases as long as
a) they don't hit me in addition with a huge collection fee (as they do these days with all purchases above the tax-free limit) and
b) I get at the same time a refund of overseas applied GST (otherwise I pay twice) and
c) The cost for collecting the additional taxes is less than the additional taxes they collect, otherwise the whole exercise is pretty pointless - isn't it?
Sort of doubt they manage to be fair and reasonable ... probably just another scheme to employ more useless and expensive bureaucrats and make life overall more expensive in New Zealand. Don't hold my breath.
