How we check this price
- A person opens the retailer's own product page. No scraper, no feed, no reseller listing — the price is read off the page a buyer would land on.
- The price is recorded with the date it was read. That date is printed beside the price everywhere it appears on this site, in the mono type you can see above.
- Rows are sorted by price, and by nothing else. The sort function receives a price and no other argument, so there is no position to sell.
- A check older than 14 days is flagged; older than 60 days is deleted. We would rather show you fewer prices than one we no longer stand behind.
publishable(row) = has price AND has check date AND (today − check date) < 60 days

Common questions
What does the Apple iPhone 16 Plus (128GB) cost in New Zealand?
We have no verified New Zealand retail price for it yet. Our indicative RRP estimate is $1,849, which is our own figure and not a price any retailer has confirmed. We publish a price only once a person has read it off the retailer's own listing, with the date attached.
How often is the Apple iPhone 16 Plus (128GB) price checked?
A person re-reads each retailer's own listing on a schedule. A price older than 14 days is flagged on its row, and a price older than 60 days is removed from the table rather than shown to you as if it were current.
