Transatlantic pricing has been the same forever, computer hardware and consoles are another thing that ignores exchange rates , if something is $99 we usually get it for £99.

Usually utter the classic "import taxes" line. |
As has been said already, the US prices are with contract, the UK are sim-free. Of course there's a difference!
The taxes are something to consider - US prices are always quoted without tax, which varies from state to state but is often around 10%
So there price is more like $110 and ours should be £75 on contract if it were equal pricing. But then, there is the increased import tax, which probably adds another 20% to the wholesale price, so make it just over £80. In comparative terms that's US price of $110 vs UK of $130. ____________________ current: ducati monster 750

My 4S contract is up next month, so I'll be just putting it on a much cheaper tariff. There's nothing being offered on a phone (by anyone, at any price) that does something different that I want, and can't actually think of anything that they could add to a phone that would make me moist and start waving my money around. ____________________ Chances are quite high you are not in my Monkeysphere, and I don't care about you.

Aye, Giffgaff have 250 minutes, unlimited texts, unlimited data for £12, but I reckon I could probably get by on 100 minutes, 50 texts and 500Mb data easily, so I've some shopping around to do. ____________________ Chances are quite high you are not in my Monkeysphere, and I don't care about you.
