"I am a private pilot and own my own aircraft .
I also import small inspection tools for industry.
I am prevented from taking some of these tools with me to sell when I travel to remote towns as carrying goods for the purpose of trade is deemed to be a commercial flight however I can take salesmen with me and pick up tools from local freight depot and then sell them . OK private flight."
I don't think you have this right. It would never occur to me that what you describe above is a commercial operation.
You have used your own aircraft to transport yourself and goods that you own from point A to point B.
What you may do with the goods once you arrive at point B is none of CASAs business.
