Just found out my my friends in Australia can get a pair of Usher S520s for £220. This is the bargain of the century. Have prices dropped here?

Yes we live in Rip off Britain but still, it's a huge difference. People here are having to make do with average gear, biased dealers, paid off magazines with advertising revenue ... yada yada yada ...
That said, when I lived over there, hifi was super expensive. Special luxury tax on everything and always drooling at the numerous offers on used gear I could not ship 20k km. Fortunate China was close to the rescue.
Some things, you just think WTF. And after finding this out I will be more wary for haggling a price.
