i've been noticing more websites not including GST in listed prices, which, to my understanding, is illegal unless you're advertising exclusively to other businesses:
Businesses must display the total price of a product or service as a single figure. This price must be the minimum total cost – the lowest amount a customer could pay, including any taxes, duties and unavoidable or pre-selected extra fees.
here are two websites i've seen doing this in the past week alone - red hat and patreon. patreon in particular is in no way aimed at business-to-business transactions.
There are laws about how businesses display prices. They cover how prices are displayed, and what must be included in the displayed prices.Australian Competition and Consumer Commission

Can somebody help me understand this please: why would we ever give out carbon credits for not chopping down a forest? “Here’s a forest we shouldn’t cut down anyway. Because we’re not cutting it down, now you can burn more fossil fuels!”
