    Yes but you're forgetting the fact that stuff is generally cheaper in the US compared to the UK.
    Yes, great, isn't it ;)

    PS - I bought a £2,000 ring in Jamaica and I wasn't stopped at customs.

    in reply to another post above are HMRC allowed to check credit card transactions without some form of permission??

    Don't know - but it may not be a question of checking, but that the card provider is required to report any transactions over a specified figure under the money laundering regs.

    The Government don't need any sort of permission to be checking your creditcard activity.
