Australian Nikon buyers, are we being ripped off?

Jan 29, 2007

A D200 is selling around US$ 1600 in the US including a Nikon lens 18-70mm which is around AU$2000 Australian money.

In Australia a D200 is selling for AU$2300 and a Nikon lens 18-70 around AU$600 and over, together a total of AU$2900
Why that massive difference in price? Why?
Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
