Not a fan of tipping culture in general but this is nuts.

It's like 718 USD, probably shipping and VAT or something.

Huh, US$718 converted is NZ$1211. Adding GST makes it NZ$1395.

That's more than this site is charging. And on par with MightyApe's prices. Perhaps they're showing exclusive prices, or they're not GST registered yet.

Nah I converted the listed price to USD :)

Oh that makes sense.

Pricing appears to be US$529 (NZ$830 converted), so at least NZ$1027 including gst. Of course not counting reseller scalp/shipping/markup.
