Smile Price of Things in Oz

Could any of you Oz side peeps let me know if the price of things like PS2, Gameboys and the asociated Games, are the same or dearer than in the UK. Also, have been told to ask if the price of cigs. are expensive in Oz...may need to bring a supply over duty free?

Cheers T.F.A.

I thought the PS games would have been a bit cheaper (yours are roughly same as here) being nearer the areas they are made!
Never mind we'll just bring in our allowance of fags and then try and get him to stop...as if!!!

Jesus ABC, dont show 'em that, they've all just come to the conclusion that we dont have any online shopping in Australia cos we still all live in the 1970s .
