We concur. 519€ here in Greece, which is 603$. Pretty close, eh? Blame it on the distributor? Smaller entrepreneurs are exempted of vat for electronics, so 418€. Tolerable level. However, wherelse could it be pricier? Somewhere in Latin America? |
Yeah, there's been talk about the distributor for the Scandinavian region when it comes to Nintendo specifically, there have always been insane price discrepancies compared to the rest of the continent. Most Swedes import from Germany now (there are examples in this very thread of the immense price difference) since they're both in the EU and no added tolls or taxes apply in most cases.
The company Bergsala has a monopoly on all Nintendo products to Scandinavia, are believed to be behind the majority of the insane pricing. They deny this, of course, but even government-level flashlights have been shining at them since last year (and the unveiling of the ludicrous pricing of the Switch 2).
