Well, my bad for generalizing. Looks like prices are different in various EU countries.
In my country the cheapest model is about $1200 USD (vs $1049 USD), while the most expensive one is over $1600 USD (vs $1349 USD). Absolutely ridiculous prices, but I’m glad to hear some countries have slightly better ones.
Not for me it isn’t, at least when I tried to check out the Steam Deck 512 the price stayed at 779€, so for the machine it should be the same. I agree the price is way too high, plus I have 22% VAT so it would be even worse for me lol
What? In the US it currently costs 1049$, in the EU 1039€. If it was 750$ it would also be around the same price in Euro
In EU taxes are included while in the US they’re not. Or something, I don’t know I’m from the EU.
Allow me to Bing that for you
Don’t worry, I already asked Jeeves
jeeves died
let him rest
Lycos has the answer

EU tends to include taxes in the sticker price, the US doesn’t.
Isn’t the EU price pre-vat?
VAT is 21% at least in romania. That would knock it up to about $1210. It’s a ridiculous price for what it is.
I love steam but that thing just isn’t my cup of tea.
Edit: I got lost in the currency conversions.
nah, prices in the eu must always include vat
Everything here always includes vat, including steam
