I think the issue with the PLB's is the hunting/shooting/outdoor stores can't buy them in the bulk amounts that the like of the boating and technology places can, so they can't compete with their prices.

Actually I would expect it is the other way around as most PLBs are used on land and not water in NZ. Boating would be more an EPIRB than PLB. Always happy to help out as prices are down to the $320 mark nowadays. @CooeeBay
