And when imported via official channels we use a thumb rule of 2x-3x in Uganda, so 420$ is not too far off ;-)
(product + shipping) * 25% import duty
+
(product + shipping) * 6% WHT
+
(product + shipping) * 18% import VAT (not the same as Sales VAT, but can be offset)
==
cost of product at the supplier/distributor
+ margin + Sales VAT (if applicable) == product x 3

Welcome to UG :-)

I am curios as to where this $four-hundred-&-twenty dollar PSU is coming from? I did a quick search on google and they range from $20 to $30, maybe $40 with the fancy neon lights.


Those are Chinese brands. The one being quoted was a Thermaltake v2.3 PSU, which can range between $150-$200, e.g.

When you factor in the shipping and tax costs, it's not THAT unbelievable.
