Just picked up my kit from the post office but was disappointed to see that it came with a Type B plug (US/Canada) rather than the (superior ;P) Type G plug used here in the UK. Just a warning to anyone in the UK that you may need to buy an additional plug when you get your kit.
MenaceIncI relocated over there and brought a bunch of electronics with me, changing out the cables over there. I ended up selling everything when I returned to the US because electronics cost so much over there. I can understand the VAT part, but I was selling many items for more than I bought them for (this was back in the 1990''s, but even clock radios and such were extortionately priced in the UK).
