My guess it's largely laziness. People love monopolies because they are convenient and maybe herd mentality.
I generally find stores in price comparison websites (just make sure you don't visit the store directly from Google's shopping tab which might give them a commission) or ebay.
Buying the other way (US to Europe) is rarely worth it unfortunately. With 19% import tax and the ridiculous international shipping charges in the US it only really makes sense for very small items.
I'm going to start sending lists of things to buy for me so you can find me the best deal. I'm also sending a list of companies to boycott for me. You will be paid in exposure; I here that is what all the kids work for now.
