I like them because they are great products and because they are cheap. (yep like to have my cake and eat it too).
The thing is that most of us can stock up enough until the next trip...which is what i have done for 5 years now, no probs.
I know that things sold here are usually tripled in cost to make money, and understand that, so given the fact that i could stock up, wouldn't be prepared to pay much more than triple ..if a day cream is $3 in Bali then why would I pay more than $10 here.
The only problem would be if we weren't heading back for a while and ran out.....but I am still not a big fan of those that overcharge way too much when back in Oz.Would prefer to see the balinese get the profits.
Hope that helps.
