A 6-pack costs $95 over there.

500 cases here: $25 = $12,500
2,000 6 packs in Australia at $70/per (discount black market rate) = $140,000

2 trips per year.

Anyone? Anyone?

I've always wanted to be an international beer smuggler. Why is it so expensive there?

For that bottled piss?

I thought Aussies were real men, I've lost all respect.

F/D board looses their damn mind over parish charging $24/ for a 4 pack. Couldn't imagine if one of those bastards had to move to Australia.

You overload your inventory and you blow your margins on gasoline. Trust me, it doesn't work.

Is that 95 USD or Australian monopoly money?

How about you stay a little closer to home and work on importing me some Havana Club out of Cuba. My dealer in London actually goes to Cuba a few times a year and brings bottles back with him. Then, I order them from him, and he ships them back across the pond. It's a wonderfully inefficient process that someone needs to streamline. With GBP/Euros vs Pesos, I believe he's paying under $10USD/bottle in Cuba and selling them (with shipping) to me for $80USD.

You've got to think 6k 6-packs will drive down the cost much more than $70 per.

I'm not jumping up and down at the opportunity to smuggle beer with a guy of such questionable economic intelligence.

It would difficult to sell 6 packs for three times as much as it costs in the store.

Australia has much better beer than Corona.

No way this is correct. That pisswater is not worth 95 cents.
