Is the honeymoon over? Where are the Kiwis? :lol:

We have had enjoying the "cheap" import gears since Sept. 2004 and is it the end of the cycle?

This rate and the sign of the weakness of our Aussie dollar will cause the suffering to our lusts.

We will expect to see the rise of pricing accross all import items in retail market soon, yes it's the good excuses & explanation to raise price up from all importers. :twisted:

Have noticed the curreny weakness myself, 8 weeks before an overseas trip. Good thing I bought pounds sterling 6 months ago, lucky guess this might happen.
