    True, but the average income / buying power has to be factored in too, right? Caveman googling gives the average Russian’s income to be $14k USD / year whereas Swedes are at $47k USD / year. Assuming more caveman math, that’d be like paying $5.23/dozen in Rubles compared to $3.60/dozen in SEK.

    Of course you can’t just do these sort of comparisons exactly, because money’s always more complicated than that, but I think it gives a better context.
