Yes, the price is the same, more or less on consumer electronics. The fact that the average monthly wage in Italy is ~2000 euros, consider that an HD TV is more costly than to an American, who with the same job, takes 5000 USD a month. I believe it is due to the inflation that arose unchecked after the Euro took root in Italy.
- laaph 15y agoWhile I am aware some discussions on HN make it sound like everyone in the US has a Silicon Valley type of salary, I assure you that is not the case, and the average US salary about $43000/per year, or closer to $3500/month (which, without looking it up, I think is about €2500). Having said that, I still note that everything is more expensive in Europe (er, well, Netherlands and UK, the countries I'm most familiar with) than in the United States.
