These are the prices in my country for those devices, converted to USD.

Libra 2 32gb - 230 USD
Oasis 3 32gb - 239 USD
Oasis 3 8gb - 219 USD

Clara HD - 140 USD
Clara 2E - 173 USD
PW5 - 120 USD
PWSE - 160 USD

Amazon customer service removes ads if you ask nicely so that's 20 USD I won't be worrying about.

I miss having a Kobo, but it's just not wise to switch financially. I'll always feel like I was cheated if I buy a Kobo with these prices.
For comparison's sake, here:

Sage (32GB) 299.99€
Libra 2 (32GB) 189.99€
Clara 2E (16GB) 149.99€
Nia (8GB) 109.99€
(Clara HD is not available anymore)

Kindle Base(16GB) 99.99€ with ads, 109.99€ without ads
PW (8GB) 139.99€ with ads, 149.99€ without ads
PW (16GB) 159.99€ with ads, 169.99€ without ads
PWSE (32 GB) 189.99€
Oasis (8GB) 249.99€
Oasis (32GB) 279.99€
They still list Oasis 32GB + cellular @ 339.99€

and when some colleagues tried to have the ads taken down, they were told it was not possible. So you need to beg nicely to the right CS unit (so, cringe, Amazon).
