Recon with the happy AUD exchange rates, kites here should be at least 20% cheaper soon.

Yea, Jan you are right about that. Just was checking on Ozone kites and found them 25% cheaper in Swiss Francs...and I'm heading over there soon anyway. But AUD/USD is nicely above 80 now and I recon kite prices have just gone up in the past years....is it inflation?

Kite prices have gone down a little bit if anything.

The $$$ from a good exchange rate goes straight in to the distributors pockets.

Swings and roundabouts.

What could be looking a good year could be wiped out by a drop in the AUD. Profiteering maybe, but its not just kites, it's everything that's imported.

So is food and housing has become silly in WA, ...gee and they tell us we have no inflation.

Maybe in the big scheme of things kites are a bargain.

Hi Gruezi

If you are interested in an Ozone, buy local, we will match any genuine price you can find, in any currency.
Contact me if you want one, don't wait, that would be a waste of wind!

Cya and

Goodwinds
