The same Dell XPS 15 cost $1800 on the Dell US website and 2300 euros ($2522) on the Dell French website (I'm from France), taxes don't raise the price by $722, fuck you Dell.

What about Lenovo ?

*Laughs in Australian*

@Biggy This is a problem with all the manufacturers and not only with laptops. Technology is simply more expensive in Europe than the US, and taxes are never enough to explain it.

But in the US sales tax are not always included in the listed price.

So the $1800 can be without any taxes or other fees that are then added in checkout.

But in EU, or at least many eu countries, sales tax must bu included in the price listed.

@torbuntu well as a non US I did not know this either until about s month ago when I was bored and stumbled on a video about it from one of the channels I look at from time to time. :)

If I'm not mistaken the VAT rate in France is 20%, so that would make it $2160
