I'm about to do a bit of international flying so thought buying some Bose Noise Cancelling headphones (QuietComfort 25) on my way out through duty-free would be a wise idea.

Trouble is, I can't find any references online that anyone in Auckland Airport actually sells them?

Any frequent fliers got any ideas?

Since duty free stores are pretty much outlets for suckers these days odds are you'll save exactly the GST component - don't expect to get a great deal. The price of many things in duty free stores (I'll use many champagnes as a classic example) are significantly more than you'll pay in a normal liquor store or supermarket both here and in Australia.

It's a shame you didn't buy them at the many Dick Smith sales over the last 6 months or so as they've had some incredible bargains on QC25's

To rap up this tread in case anyone stumbles on it in the future:

The Loop Duty Free said they stock this at $417.00 NZD

Duty Free Stores New Zealand didn't stock.

I ended up buying from JB HIFI for $479
