Yeah that was my concern too ordering from Kobo. My guess is they are shipping from Canada which means you'll get hit by about £12 customs fee from Parcel Force for processing the Customs Duty and 20% on top of the price. Unless they are shipping from UK and using something like WH Smiths to fulfill orders? Kobo's website does say £189.99 VAT included, but if it's shipping from Canada that could be interesting if you end up paying double VAT. I would hope that they fulfill orders from somewhere in the UK.
If it's saying VAT included I would presume they are collecting VAT and remitting it to the UK government so it shouldn't get double collected no matter where they shipped it from. You'd still potentially have customs on top of that price.
