Why would you add 17.5% to the US prices ? AFAIK people in most states pay the price what you see online. I know that people in NY for eg. pay something extra as tax. Americans on this forum can provide more information on different taxation in different states.

Bottom line, prices in US definitely are way cheap if bought in non-taxable states..
