Hey, I’m an American moving to NZ (Whangerei, Northland) in a few months and am trying to device if I should fly my desktop/server over or just build a new one there.
What’s the general availability of server and desktop parts there? Any recommended local shops, or do I need to import everything from Asia?
I didn’t know they had inport taxes on desktops. Thanks for the heads up.
In my experience, typically import taxes are there to try and encourage buying local. Does New Zealand manufacturer their own electronics, or is this import tax just a way to levy money? Or is it to reduce environmental impact?
It’s cause NZ’s tech market is the equivalent of a mid sized uni in the US or China.
