I here the dollar will drop to 50c, approx the same as a phone call to tell someone who cares! 
Got to remember pinball is a luxury item, not a necessity and to those who can afford, the $AUD and/or import price is irrelevant.
We are still very sheltered from the REAL global economy and should be very lucky about where we live and our lifestyle.
My 2 cents worth, which is now worth a little less due to fall in $AUD 
Unfortunately we are not insulated from energy prices and when they keep going up everything else will follow.
Imports have also risen sharply thanks to the number of cheap overseas products sourced by our dynamic duo supermarket companies. The local manufacturers and growers have been screwed out of existence. High pinball prices will be the least of our problems.
