I could have sworn your figure worked out too much more than 299 with the VAT and all, wasn't it roughly at $600?
299 GBP for the bike, assembly and shipping.
299 GBP - 20% VAT = 240 GBP without tax
USD has fallen 12 percent against the GBP since when I bought it: 299 GBP x 12% = 36 GBP
240 GBP without tax - 36 GBP (correction for current USD value versus when I bough it) ... results in 204 GBP
204 GBP = 339 USD
So, not quite 300 USD ... but relatively close!
The $600 price includes a bunch of stuff including two Knog lights, a Sigma 1009 computer, a Kryptonite Lock, fenders, tax, grease for the chain, and the soon to be 20% drop in the USD versus the GBP
