I used a freight forwarder to save $50 on the Anker MagGo Qi2 Power Bank

Why I'm obsessed with the Anker MagGo Qi2 Power Bank

I have been waiting for the Qi2 standard to finally hit the mainstream, and now that it is March 2026, the market is finally flooded with great options. For me, the Anker MagGo Power Bank (Qi2 Certified, 10K) is the standout. If you are like me and use an iPhone or one of the newer Android phones that adopted the magnetic standard, you know the struggle of slow wireless charging. This little device offers 15W MagSafe-style charging, which is twice as fast as the old 7.5W limit we used to deal with.

I love that it has a built-in smart display that tells me exactly how much battery is left and how long it will take to recharge. However, when I started looking for one in Australia, I realized we were getting the short end of the stick again regarding pricing and availability. That is why I decided to shop US store options instead.

Comparing the US price to what we pay in Australia

In my research, I found that local Australian retailers were listing the Anker MagGo 10K for upwards of $165 AUD. Meanwhile, on major US retail sites, the price has been hovering around $89 USD. At the current exchange rate, that is roughly $135 AUD. Even before looking at shipping, I was already looking at a $30 saving. When US stores run their seasonal sales, that gap gets even wider. I managed to snag mine during a clearance event, making the math even more attractive.

My process for ordering from the USA in 2026

The biggest hurdle for us Aussies is that most US stores either do not ship here or charge an absolute fortune for direct shipping. I have found that the most cost-effective way is to use comGateway. They provide you with a tax-free us address in Oregon, which means you do not have to pay US sales tax on your purchase. This saves another 7% to 10% right off the bat.

If you are new to this, I recommend checking out their how it works page. It is a simple step-by-step guide: you buy the item, ship it to your Oregon address, and then they notify you when it arrives so you can ship it home to Australia.

Using a parcel forwarding service to get it to Australia

I have used a few different companies over the years, but I keep coming back to this parcel forwarding service because of the consolidation features. If I am buying the Anker power bank, I might also grab a few cases or a new charger. By holding my packages at the warehouse and shipping them together, I save a lot more than if I shipped them individually. This is the secret to making international shipping actually affordable for tech gear.

How I handle US stores that block my Australian credit card

We have all been there. You find a great deal on the Apple Store US or a site like Sephora, you get all the way to the checkout, and then—bam—your order is cancelled. This happens because many US retailers block international credit cards or refuse to ship to addresses they recognize as warehouses. It is incredibly frustrating when you are just trying to get a fair price.

When this happens to me, I use the BuyForMe service. This is essentially a proxy shopping or assisted purchase feature where comGateway actually buys the item on your behalf using a US-based domestic credit card. I have found that this is the safest way to guarantee my order doesn't get cancelled by picky retailers. They handle the entire transaction, and I just pay them. It takes the headache out of dealing with stores that try to restrict where we can shop.

Thinking about international shipping and AU import tax

Before I click buy, I always make sure I know what the final landing cost will be. I use the shipping calculator to get an estimate shipping cost based on the weight of the power bank. Since the Anker MagGo 10K is relatively light, the international shipping rates are usually quite reasonable, especially if you choose a slightly slower economy option. You can see the full breakdown of shipping fees on their site to choose between DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping depending on how fast you need your new toy.

One thing we have to remember in Australia is the import tax. As of 2026, the rules are still fairly consistent: for goods under $1,000 AUD, you typically only have to worry about the GST which is often collected at the point of sale by the freight forwarder. Since the Anker power bank is well under that threshold, I didn't have to deal with any complicated customs forms or surprise duties. It arrived right at my door in Sydney just 8 days after it reached the US warehouse.

Overall, I'm really happy with the Qi2 upgrade. My phone stays cool, it charges fast, and I didn't have to pay the 'Australia Tax' to get it.
