overseas "dental" holiday anyone?, page-4

I would have to agree with chimi here from what I have seen.

A similar thing appears in the spectacle market (my previous trade many many moons ago).

Recently I was in Europe and the prices for spectacle frames there are stunning compared to in Australia - I regularly saw frames there for way under 200 euro that sold here for over $600 - some up to $1000.

Interestingly enough the refraction was more expensive in the Netherlands - not huge, but appreciably more.

But boy were the frames cheap compared to what we are paid.

Then again, I suppose it costs an arm and a leg to ship a lowly pair of spec. frames to down under :)


have a great arvo
