What I find a rip-off is then something is priced say $100 in the US and £100 in the UK. That means that UK buyers are paying more.
Our prices don't include 20% VAT.

I've often found it cheaper importing Blu-rays from Amazon UK to the US because it's cheaper after removing VAT (even after currency conversion and shipping).

As for the willing, I expect that means most people *will* still pay rather than go without. In countries with lower median income, higher prices would automatically translate to a much, much smaller market.
