£9680 + £650 (shipping) = £10,330
This is what I’m paying in store.

If you switch the website to HK, it’s HK$109,000, that is £12,258 according to google currently.

Hong Kong doesn’t have import tax and sales tax😛 it depends where you’re shipping to then

It’s even cheaper this way. I guess they have to encourage in-store shopping? And not all of the brands are available on international website.

Yes. But it also works if you have overseas friends planning to visiting UK (they can bring you the items), or if you’re traveling out of UK soon, you can ship it to the destined hotel first. Provided you trust the parties/individuals mentioned above.
