The Oasis isn't $270. It's $289.99. But that's for the Special Offers version which is only available in the US. Without special offers it's $309.99

Today's exchange rate is $1:£0.705400

$309.99 = £218.67

But the US list price is before any sales tax. And in the UK we have VAT included in the list price:

£218.67+20% = £262.40

Actual UK list price: £269.99

It's a high price, but not out of line with the US price.
