Is Everything this expensive in all over Europe?
I plugged the Euro cost of the Burg 400 into my currency converter.
€7589. = $9116.30 US!!
Yikes!
The 400 lists for $5700 here!
Makes me want to buy a shipload here and take them to Europe and sell them at the dock..........
Ok, I'm going to chip in to this 4 year old thread too.

It is not a question of other countries being more expensive - it is a case of everything in the US being so CHEAP. :shock:
Something that US based posters cannot appreciate, especially if they have not travelled outside of their own country, is just how good value they are getting and how relatively wealthy they are compared with the rest of the world. I know it is within all of our natures to grumble and complain that prices are higher than we would like, but really, it is worthwhile to put things in perspective.
Compared to my country, for example, in the US you earn more dollar for dollar doing the same work, pay half the taxes and still pay only two thirds of what we pay for a Burgie. In other countries I am sure it is an even tougher comparison.

.... and don't get me started on fuel prices.
