Hi

I am going to London in January and I am thinking of buying the P900 there, and get a tax refund when bringing it back to Norway. In that matter I wonder what the tax-level is in England and I would also like tips on where to buy the P900 cheap in London.

Thanks!

That doesn't sound too legal to me!

If it is I wish I could do that!

Norway is not a part of the European Union. That is why it is possible. If you shop for at least about 70-80£ you can ask for tax-refund papers and you just drop them off at the airport when you are going home, and then they refund the tax.

When I come to Norway, I should pay the Norwegian tax on the airport, but as long as you are not stopped in the customs, you just got a new phone, tax-free!

They pay much more tax in Sweden, so I'm told by my friends who live there.

Norway and Sweden (and Denmark ?) have almost the same tax-level. Think it is 25% in Sweden. We have 24% in norway.
