I have just been checking the price of the new HAP-Z1S on the UK Sony website the price is quoted as £1999.00 on the Sony Germany website it is 1999.00 Euro. In the US price is quoted as $1999.00 looks like we are paying over to much again in the UK.
Go and live in America then.
In the UK there are higher taxes at every point in the 'chain' from when the goods arrive in the dock, to when you take it home. Even the fuel used by the van that delivers the box to the dealer will cost more.
I wouldn't be suprised if Sony make less money selling the same item in the UK.
