Accuphase pricing Japan vs. USA


I am interested in Accuphase products but the pricing seems to be out of line.  Is there a reason that you buy the equipment for a "reasonable" price in Japan, but in the USA it is double or more?  I don't get it.

Its not just distributors marking up prices but duties and taxes.

plus insurance, warehousing, setting up a distribution network, marketing and advertising, trade shows, dealer support and warranty repairs...........
