Cazmar, it's not actually the bookshops here that are ripping us off, it's the local publishing industry. Dymocks actually pushed for the removal of parallel imports in the recent review. Unfortunately the govt caved to the publishing lobby in spite of all the evidence that parallel imports were a good thing overall. There's another thread here about a current review into ebooks - I would urge you and all Australian readers to put in a submission to counter the powerful publishing lobby.
