Same, in Tunisia a B model (with no SD or anything) will go around 70$. This is mainly due to state imposed taxes on "luxury products".

I tried importing one, but customs ended up charging me almost double the unit price just to let it through. The only cheap solution to get one in Tunisia is to have someone buy it for you in europe and then bring it back in his luggage.

Can you send something like this via lettermail to your country?
Customs will check the package and if it contains any goods that they think should be taxed they'll call you and give you a quote. If you pay then you can get your package. If you don't it will sit on a shelf for-ever.
