With VAT that £6.99 would be around £8.39 though right? The £9.99 would include VAT if I'm not mistaken while the $9.99 does not include sales tax. Not exactly parity of course, but not as big of a gap in max price as it at first seems? I don't know how much, if at all currency conversion rates, local fees or any kinds of taxes besides VAT might come into play to help eat up the last £1.61 of the difference.
