We pay 19% VAT in the Netherlands (where Salland is located).
400 USD to Euro is 271,50 euros.
271.5 * 1.19 = 323 euro incl. VAT
Now they actually do ofcourse make a little profit on it and that makes this a bad calculation.
Here the stores have to pay 250 euro to get them and then sell them with 19% VAT & profit for themselves.
250 * 1.19 = 297,50, then add margings/profits to that, which became 320 euros at Salland.
250 euro to USD is ~370 USD.... Now the USD - Euro ratio changes a lot lately so this isn't solid proof, but if you add a 5% profit to the store to that it would be 370 * 1.05 is ~388,50 USD.
Does that mean it can't be lower? No, but if it would be more than $350 this would probably be why.
