Computer equipment

Most display's are still insanely expensive in this country. I should have bought one in Canada and shipped it over.

Cost in Apple store UK of a 23" display: UK £779 which translates at today's exchange rate to being US $1,538.05 (xe.com's rate of 1 USD = 0.506485 GBP). Cost in Apple store US of a 23" display: US $899.00. Which is around a 70% premium.

Cost in Dell store UK of a 20" display: UK £229 which translates at today's exchange rate to being US $452.171 (xe.com's rate of 1 USD = 0.506485 GBP). Cost in Dell store US of a 20" display: US $229. Which is around a 97% premium.

Must be expensive shipping that monitor all the extra way from China. That's a premium that Sony would be proud to have on their PS3's.
