2X to get the US Equivalent in UK

Now that Choo-Choo is here, I can no longer delay getting a vacuum cleaner. Currently leaning towards getting a Dyson DC14 or 15 model as this is suppose to be top of the line for picking up animal hair. But I can’t bring myself to part with the £359 pounds needed to secure its purchase. For goodness sake, that’s almost $800 US dollars. In checking Targee, I see that one could get same model in the US for $459. This breaks my heart. Like almost everything else over here, it cost twice as much — and even when you account for the cost of doing business in the UK, that markup just doesn’t seem fair.
