Now for the prices. These prices are for Tern and I really shouldn't be telling you guys this but what the hell. It's interesting because the guy showed me this chart with all the prices. It had a U.S. price, a Taiwanese retail price, and a “special” Taiwanese price. What's even more interesting is that the U.S. price on the Uno doesn't match the prices that I've seen online. This may sound complicated but here it goes: For example, the Uno is listed as $650 on many U.S. Retail sites. But it's listed U.S. price is only $599 on that chart. The listed U.S. price for the Duo is the same as the U.S. retail price, $1000. Now for the Taiwanese prices. The Uno has a retail price of 17,900nt($608) which matches almost exactly with their listed U.S. price. The “special” price is 14,900nt($506) which is $150 cheaper than U.S. retail prices, a significant savings. The Duo has a retail price of 29,990nt($1019), again this matches almost exactly as the listed U.S. price. The “special” price is 26,000nt($883), a savings of around $120 compared to U.S. retail.
