$9,99 + $1,99 (presumed wireless hidden fee) = 11,98
+25% Danish VAT on this amount gives $14,98 which is $1.20 too much.

From previous discussions it was my impression that it was 15% for Europe (or only EU countries?), which is British VAT (apparently because Amazon USA is VAT registered for Europe (or EU) in Britain. (9,99+1,99)*1,15 = 13,77 which fits better.
