This is the exact reason I did not buy a Celestron scope when I was looking for a bigger reflector. I hate monopoly pricing and I refuse to be gouged. I should say I don't blame the Celestron retailers, their hands are tied by the prices the distributor sets.
I ended up buying a Tak scope that, at the time, was being sold here for almost exactly the same price as it retailed for in the US.
If you look around you can find equipment that is sold here at a fair price, alternatively, especially for smaller or less fragile items, you can order from overseas.
