129,800 JPY to get one to Japan, vs $749 USD in the US. So just by paying in JPY, I am paying $895.10, so $146.10 more. What gives? That's VERY expensive

- tallanvor 2y ago10% VAT covers half of it. Possibly tariffs are responsible for some of it, or the difference could be due to strength differences of JPY, USD, and NOK since it's a Norwegian company.

- The_Colonel 2y agoUSD prices usually don't include sales tax. Not sure how it is with JPY, but EUR prices usually do include VAT.
- SamInTheShell 2y agoWonder how much of that is due to local taxes or perhaps tariffs. Pricing cross currency is more than just an exchange rate calculation.
