Ipad pricing

[jayroc2k]

The GBP:USD pummelling will not do much to help the Ipad price in the UK!

unless Apple entered into GBP-USD hedges earlier in the year.


check out the graph since the announcement of the ipad


i was thinking £349 but i suspect closer to £399 now

It's already £391 if you take the current exchange rate and add 17.5% VAT. Add import duty/tax to that and I think we'll see above £400 for the 16GB wi-fi model.

So you guys have a good way to earn money: Bring 10 iPads from US to UK whenever you travel (tours, conferences etc). You can easyly sell iPad @ 600 USD to earn 100 USD per item

Couldn't you just hide em in bricks of cocaine or something less valuable? lol

At least you would throw off the "iPad" sniffing dogs...

And if the next Government ups VAT to 20% shortly after the election in May??

The party which sticks that bombshell in their manifesto isn't going to win the election.
