When I bought my X7, Sean accidentally billed me in dollars, I was delighted as the price was a couple of hundred less than advertised for UK.
Sadly it was an error and I had to cough up the difference, there’s 20% VAT on all musical instruments (and most everything else) here.
You’d faint at the price of Martins and Taylors over here, we pay import duty AND VAT on them.
So , bad luck Yanks, but , you know , ,,, suck it up.
