ie US price = $299 = £168. Add VAT and that's £197. The actual UK price is £199.

Don't forget that even though the quoted US price excludes tax, if you buy the 505 in a store in the US, the buyer has to pay sales tax on top of the quoted price.
Do you mean that if I come in person to B&H in NY, and buy PRS-505 I will pay more than $300???
