Just another example...

QBD and dymocks don't even stock it or list it....

book depository doesn't stock or list it either.

An Australian ebay shop has it, but they want $64 AUD + AUD $8 shipping for it...for a grand total of AUD $72...

just ordered it off Amazon - < AUD $54 including shipping...

Now some of you might say that it's only saving $18 and that that isn't a lot of money...I digress. If $18 isn't a lot of money, would you kindly please consider donating it ($18) to me via paypal please. I thought not.

Our government lets Australians get ripped off under the guise of "free market". And the sad thing is, most Australians are too stupid, and too lazy and allow it to happen, instead of demanding that our government enforce reasonable price parity from Australian distributors and retailers. Instead, our government goes in the opposite direction and intends to force Australian consumers to get ripped off by local distributors and retailers. Go figure. So much for serving their legal constituents (might I remind you that businesses are not legally viewed as constituents). One has to question why our government(s) listen to businesses, and not their legal constituents, but I digress.
