XBOX ONE

US - 499.99 USD = 303.99 GBP.

UK - 429.99 GBP.



Apple iPhone 5S (Directly from Apple)

US - 650.00 USD = 395.19 GBP

UK - 549.00 GBP



Probably mainly because of the Government Tax on items.

I wish that wasn't the case. I'd save so much money on things.

I've basically paid then:

756.59 USD for my Xbox One with FIFA 14 DL Code

1650 USD for a Gaming PC that's worth 1150 USD.

100 USD for a 5.1 Speaker Set worth 70 USD.

Ohh you're talking about consoles and what not?

America is cheaper for houses for a start A LOT cheaper than UK.
Although to back up UK we do get free NHS which is paid by us through tax.

Anyway long story short, America is a lot cheaper than most things here but what can you do lol.

Its mainly because of VAT and TAX

XBOX ONE without VAT is would be 354.74GBP (or Near) VAT is 17.5% which is stupid.
