Waterstones has it for £159.99 but you can claim the VAT back of £23.82 making final total £136.17 or you can do the same thing on a online company called Kikatet (never heard of them though) where total after cash back is £129.96. Sony stores are pretty much same price as Waterstones

A friend bought a 350 at Waterstones in Shrewsbury on offer for £129.99 on Saturday. I assume that this is a nationwide offer and that there are Waterstones in London (although I haven't checked that).

I just looked online and the 350s are back up to £159.99 appears the offer , online at least, has ended and you have the VAT refund instead

It may be worth the OP visiting a physical shop if it's convenient just to make sure. Of course, if it's not convenient, the VAT back offer isn't far off as good anyway. |

agreed there are a few Waterstones stores in London. It also appears that the VAT refund offer is only available in certain stores as W H Smiths and Tesco Direct arent offering VAT refunds
Just been on John Lewis website and they are offering the PRS 350 at £129.95 but are currently out of stock and will email you when it is back in stock. Same price? who knows |

Thank you for all your answers. I can't get the VAT back because I don't live in the UK. Do you know if any of the waterstones in London have it for £129?

Looks like Waterstones are doing the PRS's at full price with the VAT back offer.
http://www.waterstones.com/waterston...vat-back/2238/ I got mine when they were doing it for the cheaper price. |

Went into Waterstones today and the 350 is available in Pink and Silver for introductory offer of £129.99. the 650 unfortunately is still at £199 but they both look and feel amazing although my personal preference is for the 650 as the 350 just feels that bit to samll for my liking

I went to the Waterstones on Picadilly between Fortnum and Masons and Picadilly Circus. Its a big store and the Ereaders are on the ground floor.
Its made up my mind so im selling my 600 and upgrading to the 650. |
