Forgot CN22 on parcel - what happens?

Just realised I did not put a customs form on a parcel to Australia today. It's gone now.
What will happen? delay at customs?

    Probably nothing. Chances are that it'll get there no problem. Unless it looks like it could be worth a few bob it'll almost certainly get through without being checked.

    Don't worry - have done it myself - nothing happened and no obvious delay.

    Had it been the USA, it probably would have caused a delay (I mean an even bigger than usual delay in customs). :(
