    Default Buying an IPAD 2 from the USA

    Advice please.
    My friend is going to America next month and has agreed to bring me back 2 ipads.

    USA retail around $499 (£312) i will get it delivered to his office prior to him arriving.

    Is there any internal cost or tax that is applied for separate states ?

    Seems too cheap to me (32gb wifi)

    Which state will they be bought in as I think the tax depends on the State?

    I managed to get the 16GB one while I was in Guernsey the other week. VAT free £323.50

    Just checked and they will add a % of tax depending on where it is either purchased or delivered to.

    Boston appears to be 5%
