Yeah, same in Costa Rica, where I'm living currently. There are such high import taxes that technology costs 20-40% more than in the US. In some cases it is actually cheaper to purchase a plane ticket, fly to the US, buy your goods, and return with them. o.0

Haha yeah, Sweden has insane tax rates. Our currency gets stronger but our prices don't go down, so we get even more ripped off. For example it used to be 7 Kronor per Dollar, now it's 6 but no price changes on PC parts.
