Not exactly. Europrices are always after taxes, Muricans always speak of prices before taxes (and tip, if applicable), so just mentally changing the € for $ or vice versa gets you a good enough approximation.
Also, even ignoring taxes, it's pretty common for tech products to cost the same number of USD, EUR, and GBP.
That was what I assumed, and clearly I was wrong.
Nope. Still wrong according to the above thread. Looks like price in the US would be something like $1599 edit: before tax.
