    Mystery Ranch would be better off just selling directly to consumers in Australia/New Zealand. The mark up local distributors have to put on make a profit makes an already expensive pack, ridiculously priced.

    It’s a global market now. Exclusive distributors and exporting restrictions should be a thing of the past.

      It’s import taxes that are at work here. That, and shipping.

        Exactly, a private customer wouldn’t have to pay any import taxes (if the order us less than $1000AUD).
