Do you know whether it is possible to use a Asus prime purchased in the US in the UK? Are there any reasons not to buy in the US?
I can't see any reason against purchasing in USA and using in the UK providing the charger is 100-240v (most are anyway) apart from that I don't see why not but don't expect to be able to use U.S Netflix/Hulu etc they are all IP conditional.!
Generally, things are way cheaper in the U.S than in the UK we have the nickname "Rip-off Britain" and it is well deserved! Edit: Would you pay $10 for a gallon of gas?? or be prepared to pay zillions in extra taxes to "save the world" fom Climate Change? I think not!
You are from there, you know better! I was basing my comment on something i read some time ago about how much it cost to English people to support the Royal Family. Samsung Galaxy Note
Yes, though I don't know how much it is for a tablet. To calculate the final cost: Take the total cost including postage, and add duty to that (anything from 0 to over 10%). Take the new total cost including postage and duty, and add 20% VAT. Pay £8-20 to the courier for the privilege. The costs can easily go over 30%. You also have to account for the fact that credit card companies, Paypal etc. give you an exchange rate around 3-4% worse than the 'real' exchange rate.
