Price increase?

[4wd]

A lot of 'stealth' taxes in Europe and Britain..

Almost all the difference is VAT at 20%
Not exactly stealth.

Good old import duties account for the rest, I think.

there are no import duties.. just the vat at %20.. with the exchange rate so poor there is very little advantage of buying directly but there used to be..

looking at ebay even some direct Chinese and US sellers are pricing at £999 pounds and not $999 dollars some are even higher.. avoid those because because vat at 20% will get added when they hit the country making it £1200 or more.. he he

DJI and SLR hut price in the UK vat and pay it for you.. but most other sellers dont.. you have to pay that yourself..

My sales tax here in California is 7.75%, but DJI soaked it up.
