Australians will pay $1000 more than their US counterparts for the newly introduced Apple MacBook Air. >Australians will pay $1000 more than their US counterparts for the newly >introduced Apple MacBook Air. US price from US$1799 (+ US state-based taxes) = AUD$2038. Australian price from AUD$2271 (+ AUD$227) So, you equate $2038 to $2271 and come up with $1000? Why do you post these lies?  SignatureChris. > Australians will pay $1000 more than their US counterparts for the newly > introduced Apple MacBook Air. US$1799 price quoted is free of local taxes. Add 10% to allow for 10% GST added in Australia and you have US$1978. Use the Apple Calculator in currency mode and you get A$2283.13. Actual price in the Australian store is A$2499. Difference is A$215.87, or about 10%. If you want an Apple item that is overpriced, compare recently reduced AppleTV. US$229, A$449. Now that is overpriced. Contrast that to say an iPod Touch. US$299, A$399 (conversion after tax A$379.46) Signaturehttp://www.ericlindsay.com |
