    to be honest, i'd be surprised in RS passed this small saving on, i'd say their margins are pretty tight the way it is.

    They'd still be cheaper than everyone else anyway... I rang currys today to see if they had a TV listed on their UK site in stock (Samsung 37" for £499) only to be told its €750 down here... if only RS wasn't a 2 hour drive

    true, its already great savings so we can't complain. Delivery for boards is worth it to save hassle and driving

    VAT input/output has no effect on margin. It's also not optional whether or not you pass it on.
