Daniel is 100% correct, both about his business logic and the full
margin in Switzerland. It is amazing how much more the Leicas become
once they cross the Swiss-German border, even though the VAT in
Switzerland is only 7.6% vs. 16% in Germany.

Zurich has to be the city with the most Leicas per capita of any place I
have ever lived.
