Note that within the EU, as soon as you sell over a certain limit to a member country you have to charge VAT in the destination country. So large retailers will list prices with their respective VAT included and then re-calculate prices when you get to the payment stage (when they know which country you order from).

Sure, hence that part in my reply and mentioning higher VAT of Sweden. The amounts needed to apply per country VAT are rather low as well (like 35k, iirc).

>>but the price is to be a bit higher due to VAT diff.

Sweden has 25% which is pretty high, compared to the 19% Germany.
