Actually, no they don't. With various forms of VAT and tariffs, things definitely do not cost the same in all countries.

The point is that they are definitely not cheaper than in the US
Is that true still? I don't go searching prices in foreign markets, but something like the RPi being a UK piece of kit seems like it would now be more expensive in the US compared to UK simply based on recent tariffs being applied.
I generally pay 2x-3x the US price.

There are definitely countries with more expensive electronics.
