It's clear to informed, intelligent, thinking creatures such as you and I Jd but to the general idiot populace and all the (mainly) mums out there buying these toys for their kids it is not. They see an oversized ticket, they mentally and immediately equate that with being an item on special. It is a sneaky marketing ploy.

Hey fair go mate. This is Australia where people are still getting used to such concepts as colour television and being able to take a crap somewhere other than the backyard. We'll eventually cotton on to that whole 'sell cheaper, sell more' thing you Yanks do.
