May you share where? From a cursory glance, US retailers only sell them for 1.5x the price: ~120 USD

(buyer beware I don't know the details) seems a fair price for the import costs.
The 60€ price I mentioned was from the Italian Amazon.

Thank you. I should've specified I was looking at larger 6/3 cup variant. Seems like Amazon.it has that for 75€ versus 120 USD, but I agree that it's a fair price given import costs, running a business, and theoretical customer support.
