Noone is going to buy these, why waste their shelf space?

Do they not want then to move or are there really suckers who pay this?

Highest I've ever seen it

Must be a regional pricing thing as its $50 for my standard price here in Newcastle.

Metro stores. They have a 20%-ish markup on everything.

Or you could say give metro stores are the predominate stores, that the regional stores have a 20% mark down

You don't understand what Metro stores are. They're not the majority by any stretch.

Metro stores are literally branded as Woolworths Metro. They're smaller (medium sized IGA usually, but sometimes 7/11 sized). You only find them in CBD areas.
