I don't think so, most Germans don't realise that they are getting paid more
than people in the UK (and vice-versa I would imagine). I think it's more
to do with culture here, in that it seems (with my very limited sample
size!) that more people are willing to pay for things to be done properly,
and won't choose a cheaper alternative that is of lower quality. This
results in some products simply not being available because there is no
demand for them, and probably contributes to the way things are designed in
the first place.
