On New Zealand
I've just come back from living in the States for just over a year. I was born and bred Aussie though.
Let me tell you, this is completely across the board. Electronics, food, clothes, petrol!
Sometimes it's just ridiculous how expensive the markups are.
In my mind the factors which cause it are,
1. Exchange rates, 2. Shipping Costs, 3. Less Volume of products, 4. Much less competition.
As a educated consumer, which you obviously now are - Buy from the States and have it shipped, we will continuously get ripped off here which is a big shame.
