The difference is almost 50%. That's ridiculously huge. I would import.

And you could take out insurance on the difference if you're worked about the warranty. Or buy on a credit card with insurance.

You're in EU, also note all the new import charges. It might end up being worse. Other commenters also said this, but be wary of console region locks as well.
