Maybe one reason pleasure is more affordable in the USA is because suffering is much more expensive?

Dormouse:
249$ vs. 249€   (<= that currently equals to 363$).

That's more than 100$ difference!

European retail prices usually include VAT. That's a 20% extra, if it is included here. Any indication whether it is or not?

Get accustomed to the pain. The USDollar will continue to be devalued over the next decade to ease the US foreign debt pressure. If you're in the US, it means you're working for less and less value.

Less international purchasing power actually. In the long run it will be worth it, however, if it finally gets the US off its overdependency on petroleum and other imports. Not to say it won't be painful in the short term. But that's something that will need to happen anyway so why continue to act increasingly stupid in a futile attemp to put it off indefinitely?
