where are you buying them from and depends on value and what they are for.
Make sure they are very clean before having them sent.
If there is dirt on them of any kind you could be up for a huge cleaning bill or even destruction.

does this applies to vehicle also? if i a car is sold overseas, how does it worK, it there quarantine involved ? and so on.....

best to inquire with the appropriate authorities - any dirt means it is quarantined and cleaned at your expense - ignorance of the customs rules give's you no leg to stand on

Australia has some of the tightest quarantine riles in the world. It can be turned away, cleaned at your expense or destroyed.
If you export from Aus its not as bad but still take precautions
