A VPN won't help if the ship to address is Australia.
I wonder how package forwarding services will be affected. In the majority of countries, all taxes are paid by the consumer upon receipt of a parcel, so taxes don't enter into the quotation when using a freight forwarder. But under the new legislation, Australian GST would not be paid by a retailer when shipping to a US forwarding address. Might be a risky business especially if the parcel is not repackaged.
