You sure it's not 'us' ripping us off then?
The iphones are the same, iphones are pretty much half the price across the pond as they are here.

Where were you comparing the prices, Jeff?
Exchange rate is what's mainly affecting the higher price, not the "japs" ripping us off.

I have bought lots from them (from many years ago when they had a retail shop in Clitheroe), so well worth a visit.

Taking away the 20% tax, that's actually $50 cheaper than the RRP on Panasonic US's website.

Sorry, but while the OP may not have chosen a good example prices in the US are genrally a good bit lower than the UK.
I recently bought some Mercedes parts from the US dealer network and even with VAT, duty and shipping they were still less than buying them here..... and some of them didn't incur any duty or VAT on import anyway.... don't know why, I guess customs chose to not look at them for some reason. Not going to ask LOL!

I've still got that Lumix you suggested about 3 years ago. Was a good price then but god knows the difference at full price to other places!
