There’s a quirk of global economics which sees identical items costing different amounts in different countries. A Big Mac is probably the most famous example and there are some economists who even use the varying price of this burger as a comparison tool between markets. The variation in price can be understood to some extent though due to labour rates and the cost of the raw burger material in each country. However there are other goods such as clothing or electronics or Etnies shoes that are all made in one location and shipped worldwide, but which cost different amounts around the globe. This includes items such as the iPhone, vehicles and shoes. Consequently, when you want to buy something at a good price it is often worth your while shopping for it online from another country. As an example if you want to buy Etnies shoes in Australia the best place to go is online, where you can save up to 50% off the retail prices seen in Australia.
