You're forgetting about the high sales tax of 15% in NZ. That explains the vast majority of the price difference.

- lostlogin 5y agoThere is zero sales tax on US Apple store sales? Where is tax paid? I certainly have missed that.
- bialpio 5y agoSales tax can vary depending on state (among other things), see for example Oregon where it's 0%, vs Washington, where it's 6.5% (and my jurisdiction adds additional couple percent for a total of ~10%).
- systemvoltage 5y agoNo, that explains precisely $150 in price increase. We can do math: $1000 base price + 15% sales tax = $1150. How is that vast majority of price increase?
