Yeah tell me about it, imported from HK, they cost like 15 - 20 bucks in china town or some asian newsagent.

When i was in HK i bought heaps of mags, each of them were only about $2 AUD or a bit more, cheap as!

tax rort!! :(
that's a hefty tariff imposed on the newspaper. haha

mainly coz demand = inflexible (not many other alternatives available) and hence, the tariff tax is mostly imposed on the buyer of the newspaper. *nods*

haha yeah, some of the costs comes from the tariff tax or something like that which is why magazines from hk are more than 3 times as expensive here than over there
