Interesting article with examples on Stuff: http://www.stuff.co.nz/technology/gadgets/8144627/Higher-prices-for-NZ-tech-addicts

Apparently: "Kiwis are paying a premium for some consumer technology products and software, in some cases shelling out over 40 per cent more than shoppers in the United States."

Population = Volume of Sales
Volume of Sales = Pricing Reductions
Population = Point of Presence for Manufacturer
Point of Presence for Manufactuer = Cheaper Distribution / do it themselfs.

In little we NZ the local retailers have to bear the ticket clippers on distribution (which includes margins for fuel and exchange rate flucuations) and of course less population.
