For you to automatically assume that similar products will be the
identical price in different stores is your first mistake.  To make
another comparison, prices for similar goods in Canadian Tire are not
always (very rarely is more correct) the same as those in Home Depot. 
Many stores use different pricing schemes. 

One other point of note is that on certain printers, some dealers will
sell the 'gray market' version whereas more reputable and larger dealers
are authorized to sell them.
