I like checking every day. It's like adult Christmas morning. I get that this is more efficient but the sale used to be like a game you had wanted to play.

No daily deals or flash sales. Casuals ruined Steam. This used to be fun. I really don't like being negative.

But not economies of scale. More units garner lower prices. Biggest guy wins, boom monopoly.

I'm totally with him on the digital side. It blows my mind that physical media is cheaper than digital in NZ, but unless I'm mistaken he's brought physical consumer goods into his argument and it's simply not the same thing.

Example lazy quote:

"I don't really see why we shouldn't extend the pricing requirements to physical goods, I they sell it anywhere in the world at Cost X, the price in NZ should only ever be Cost X + shipping to NZ."

^You're in my cool book.

If you don't understand the way goods are priced here you need to look up both "economies of scale" and "distance to market". Both of which pose difficulties to New Zealand businesses.

If you try to price gouge anything, anything the next guy in line will take your market share. People are too savvy now, and they're price checking globally, just like us when we buy games.

Regional pricing and buying power. Retail prices are more controlled by distributors than you'd think. I have to buy product x from the importer/distributor, even when product x is for sale online to the end user at less than my cost.

When the boomers are dead and gone, so too will bricks and mortar go. Scary prospect for me really. I'm trying to get our online store up to scratch with little funds and less understanding from boomer management.

Also trying to get a younger market, but until I can drop ship from overseas it's never going to happen.

If you don't like people having the ability to complain about tax move to N Korea

It doesn't make sense to complain about tax. It's the governments source of income. Same as every other country.

Complaining about how that money is spent is a different matter.

Of course it makes sense. I'm not complaining about paying tax, I'm complaining about paying MORE tax in a country that is in the top ten "most taxed" countries.

Things are semi-ok at the moment but it's been a rough 5 - 10 years and people don't have a lot of money. Increasing the cost of entertainment by 15% is a dick move. Government service indeed.

Intellectual Discussion / Re: THe Flag thread.

You might as well vote for the flag you think is best. I was going to cast a null vote but then I though of something.

In the unlikely event that the vote to change passes, I at least want a voice in choosing the design I prefer. Think about it. Vote no to change, but cover your bases.

I think I like the plain silver fern in black and white, but that's a bit of a "fuck you" to all the kiddies trying to draw something so complex in primary school.

I signed up on purpose to keep an eye on things. Regret.

Actually, I reckon it’ll bring in a wave of overseas based credit card accounts,

Actually if you look at the way the law and legislation is written the end user is dictated by the billing address for the end user.

HELLLO  VISA application for the USA, or USA visa prezzy cards.

Create foreign steam account and pay with foreign visa or prezzy card and then  ‘gifting’ purchases to themselves (real steam account).

Yeah, that sounds way too complicated for a dummy like me.

If this applies to the XBOX store it's going to mean paying nearly $150 for triple A's. I get fucked and peters of Kensington still gets to sell kitchen appliances for less than my cost.

Thanks National.
