Price Of Blue In Australia

[Jigantor]

I just checked out the price for a Dynasty 200 DX here in Australia.
$7600.00
This does not come with anything.
The torch kit is another $420.00 and the foot peddle is another $550.00.
To get some sparks out of it, it will set you back $8570.00

I think in the US they sell for around $3000.00
I thought our dollar was just about 1 to 1.

What is the justification for the $4600.00 over the U.S Base price? Is it tariffs? Please Clarify. Mike

[Jigantor]

I don't thinks so.
We only have a 10% GST, that is it.

$3750 list machine only

And darn the US dollar is still week 1:1.013 USD:AD

I realize your on a very large island but over double??? something fishy.

You could order it from the US and have it shipped cheeper then that.

I was gonna say, buy it online, drop ship it to me and I would reship it to the isalnd and save a ton o money for ya. If your interested LMK and I will be glad to help you work it out somehow. Just a thought, even though you dont know me from adams housecat. There's something fishy in that pricing strudture if you ask me.

Hi Kcstott,
I would love to see what Miller USA thinks of these prices.
If Miller USA was wondering why they don't sell a lot of units out on the big island this may be the reason.
I tried to find out the price of a Diversion 180 but Miller here does not import them.
Go figure.

Hi Rbeckett,
Fishy like a cannery.
I think I will buy it on line.
I have a mate that goes to the States a couple of times a year I will see if he can bring it back with him on his next trip.

Thanks for the gracious offer mate.
Hey Oprah is here at the moment I wonder if she would mind bring one over in her $50m jet next time.

Diversion 180 is list $2150 USD but actually sells for around $1800
No one that wants to stay in business sell for list everyone is selling at below list. Which I find kind of funny as a lot of companies require you to sell their product at or above list. Shimano? Telemechanique? Alan Bradley?

[Jigantor]

Hi kcstott,
I guess if they did import them here they would sell for around $5000.00.

both MSC and Graingers sell at list

MSC lists a MM252 for $2900. Grainger's is about that also. I think Bobcat's or Ranger 225's are about $4400!
The nice thing about MSC is they will sell to anyone. No business account or proof of license needed. I think MSC ships overseas also.

Thanks Deafman.
