It looks like it is $399 USD, so the price point may mostly be a conversion thing. Edit: Just looked up the conversion rate, right now 399 USD is 288 GBP? Weir

Edit: Just looked up the conversion rate, right now 399 USD is 288 GBP? Weird. The mid tier is 529 USD, so something like 382 GBP. Upper tier is 649 USD, or 468 GBP.
- Shadonototro 5y agoAh, 399 USD sounds already better
- madpata 5y ago1€ ~= 1.18$ US So, probably not just a conversion thing
- levital 5y ago$399US is ~338€ though. Even adding in 19% VAT we'd come out at a nice round 400€, so I don't really understand the 419€, which is just a weird number from a marketing perspective as well. That we're getting overcharged on this side of the Atlantic isn't new though, but happens with basically everything.
- _flux 5y agoAnd if you add 5% for import duty, you get a number very close to 419 EUR. I don't however know how much the import duty is, it seems to be a number that is very difficult to find :).
- Ekaros 5y agoWith 24-27% VAT in use in some countries it comes to exactly 419€, which might explain the price. As they really don't charge different price per country in Europe.
- jvzr 5y agoIsn't that a tax thing? Prices in Europe are displayed VAT-included, while prices in the US are VAT-free, are they not?
