Cheaper to fly from Sydney!

In searching for a good PE deal to LAX, I've found that it's more than $1000 cheaper to book SYD-LAX return (via AKL), than it is to book AKL-LAX return. The AKL-LAX-AKL sectors are exactly the same flights. Presumably though, one can't book the SYD-LAX ticket and then just board in AKL because the ticket would be forfeited if not originated in SYD? Such a shame!
