What do you mean? Companies always give a figure inc. VAT in the UK and apples price will be based on a figure they wish to sell it at inc. VAT

Yes, and in the US taxes are never included just to add to the confusion. Of course our taxes are local taxes and they differ by location.
YES, now i can get the 128GB. Prefer that other than the 64gb / 256gb / 512 gb forcing me to buy the 256gb
What I mean is, is the "retail" or "list" price pretty similar no matter where it's sold (given exchange rate variables, of course) ? In the US, Apple sells the iPhone 7, 128gb, for $749 (plus sales tax, which varies everywhere!). I presume it sells in the UK for around €650. Just checked and it's going for €699, so even with the UK's higher VAT rate, Apple doesn't sell it lower to keep prices comparable with US pricing, for example.
Ouch so thats £1202.00 for the 256GB iPhone 8. Apple will do us a favour and knock 3 quid off and punt it out at £1199
iPhone X Edition prices revealed!!!
128GB iPhone X Edition - $2000
256GB iPhone X Edition - $2500.

As long as the 128GB / entry level one is not a penny more than £1049 I’m fine with it.
China has a 17% import tax on the iPhone. Due to currency rate fluctuations, Apple charges an additional 8% on top.
Based these RMB prices, you can expect the OLED iPhone to start at $949-999 for 128GB in the U.S.

But You should have at least bolded and capitalized your post to make it seem more legitimate for those price points. Then, it would be more believable.
The truth speaks for itself. Also, the very fact that you capitalized "You" lends my story more credence.
I doubt this is real. £1200 for an iPhone is ludicrous. I'm out if it does that.
Probably will happen due to the weak £
Given the Galaxy note 8 cost almost £900 in the UK.
This. The weak pound after Brexit has made technology purchases painful. If it's only going to get worse (which seems to be the case) I can almost convince myself getting decent phone for 3-4 years is worth it.
Might get my girlfriend to buy it in the states for me. I'm supposed to be moving a very large amount of pounds into dollars and this exchange rate is going to be extremely painful for me.
My mate emigrated there about a month ago, he's stored half of his possessions due to the awful exchange rate.
is off my black book!!!It’s £849, far from “almost £900”.
The pound is down vs. last year but has stabilised now. I don’t think Apple will be raising prices any further, they already did that last year and they didn’t bump up the price for Macs and iPads this year so I highly doubt there will be any price increases due to weak pound/Brexit.
Don't forget the 512Gb model - $4000
My uncle works for Apple and he told me this
For the 10th year, it's only logical for Apple to price it at 10k
So what you have decided? Which storage option are you getting? As 64 GB is most likely not going to happen in iPhone 8
