Qantas tickets cheaper if bought in NZ?

I have noticed this as well: so called 'Australia Tax'.

Sorry I should have put in all the details :S

Am looking at trying EK first class from AKL to SYD on a return leg.  If I book through QF website as a separate PNR it comes up as NZD $900 compared to AUD$1000+ if done as part of a return SYD-AKL-SYD.

Why so much cheaper?  Any hidden traps?

There is currently a promotion on EK F originating on NZ. 

I have done this several times bought a one way j ticket to auck then purchased a return j ticket auck to Melb using the NZ site with Emirates,usually saves a few hundred dollars.all perfectly legitimate

Thanks for the information.  Just seemed 'too good to be true'.

All tickets are cheaper when bought everywhere outside Australia. Quote any route by any carrier AUS-ANYWHERE-AUS and then ANYWHERE-AUS-ANYWHERE and see

OK thanks.  I know this is extending the question but I am looking at a round-the-world first class bucket list trip.

Am I better doing all this 'off shore' than from Australia?  Any tips?

Being a QC/QFF member oneworld is preferred and tbh from my research already seem to have better options.
