The shipping could be high due to import tariffs being passed on to consumers.

(I don't know if this is true btw.)

I heard it from a brazilian who said brazil's import tariffs made it impossible to order things online, without paying a ridiculous sum of money.

If its true, buying a ledger nano s, could be a question of how to best avoid those import tariffs.

It's not high because of that, they are offering only USP Express which have a high price by nature and that's the case for all countries. Unlike other countries, I don't have the ordinary shipping option on the website and that's the issue I'm facing right now.

A quick google search found some info(bolded parts):

Import duty & taxes when importing into Algeria

Import duty and taxes are due when importing goods into Algeria by a private individual or a commercial entity. These are calculated on the CIF value, i.e. the sum of the value of the imported goods and the cost of shipping and insurance. In addition to duty, imports are subject to Sales Tax, and various product-specific taxes.
NB: Algeria is not a member of the WTO. Imports from non-WTO members into WTO Member States may be subject to higher duty rates than the MFN duty rates. While DutyCalculator does provide import duty and tax information for imports into Algeria, it does not cover information for imports from non-WTO members.

Duty Rates
Customs duty is levied at rates between 0% and 30%, with most products subject to the highest rate of 30%.

Sales Tax
Imports into Algeria are subject to a standard VAT rate of 17%, levied on the sum of the CIF value, duty, and other applicable taxes. Some goods are exempt from VAT.'

Minimum thresholds
Personal imports which do not exceed 50,000 DA in FOB value, i.e. product value excluding shipping and insurance cost, are free from duty and taxes.
Commercial imports pay all duty and taxes regardless of their value.
Other taxes and customs fees
Various products are subject to additional taxes at specific rates, i.e. based on units of measure. They include the following:
Additional Tobacco Tax
Alcohol Tax
Cereals Pulses Tax
Duty on Broadcasting Equipment
Duty on Battery
Fuel Tax
Internal Consumption Tax
Meat Health Tax
Oil Lubricant Tax
Plastic Bag Tax
Tax on Petroleum Products
Tyre Tax

I don't know a lot about algerian imports.

The 30% tax on customs duty and 17% compounding VAT tax could be a big part of why shipping is expensive there.

Another suggestion I could give is that find some service where you can look for travellers going to your country who will be coming from the country you want to purchase the product from. They can buy it and bring the product to you and you just pay them the amount plus tips. I forgot what the name of the service is, but if I do find it I'll keep you posted. Since you just give tips, probably you won't spend too much.

Try to buy from Poland - for example cost of the Ledger Nano S there is £70 - shipping to UK from Poland via DPD or GLS standart is £16 =   £86  
lowest price on ebay.co.uk I found was £96 including delivery from locals. Check Ledger retailers

Instead of going for the cheapest nano ledger you should always focus on quality and the best way to do is to order Ledger wallets from their official sites. only this way you will be  sure that you get the most secure wallet. These days many scam wallets are in the market which are a copy of Ledger wallet and they sell in cheap to get hold of your private key as virus is already inserted in them.
