Yes. I did say I wonder whether IRD care who pays as long as someone
does, and that I absorb the GST on the customer's behalf

The discount that not passing on GST represents can vary of course,
but hopefully the gesture pretty much stays the same in the customer's
eyes. For a job that has a large component count (= real dollar cost to
put together) and perhaps not much labour you might think a little harder
