The prices include 25 % Norwegian VAT.

To calculate an equivalent US price you need to first subtract VAT, and then calculate the USD price: $1255,60

 

I found the price in this ad by a regular shop in the center of Oslo: http://stereofil.no/plakater/2013_1.gif

... and of course it might pay off asking/talking to them as well. The company's listed price isn't necessarily the price you have to pay.

I know, but I thought Sennheiser had a strict and rigid price regime for retailers. I guess I was mistaken.

Those rules generally apply to advertised pricing.  Price paid is up to the reseller.

Right, those rules apply to the advertised price or msrp. If the retailer wants to charge more, then that's something different.
