Probably because theres nothing to smile about at over £1 per GB.

maybe because customs could still hit it and make it a bit more?

VAT
You pay VAT on goods sent from non-European Union (EU) countries and EU special territories (eg the Canary Islands) if they’re:
gifts worth more than £36
other goods worth more than £15
alcohol, tobacco products and fragrances (eg perfume, eau de toilette and cologne) - of any value
You have to pay VAT on all goods sent by mail order from the Channel Islands no matter what their value.
You’ll be charged at the VAT rate that applies to your goods. VAT is charged on the total value, including:
the price paid for the goods
postage, packaging and insurance
So unless Amazon covers it somehow, the price doesn't. Allowance used to be £18 in total.
hopefully I'm still wrong :smiley: voted hot anyways :P

AmazonGlobal makes international shipping easy by calculating import fees at checkout, as well as clearing customs for you. In addition, you have the visibility to track your packages door-to-door.
Here's what the postage fee gets you.

They'll probably ship it from the UK and use some transfer pricing method internally to keep Mr Taxman happy.

I bought a PS TV (silly me) the other week then realised needed memory then realised again sony had there own brand of overly expensive memory cards that are needed to do anything on them (way to pull a Nintendo on me Sony) this is a good price, unless they decide to drop the prices on these soon as they have discontinued all work on Vita etc this is the best price at the moment.
I seen on ebay either a 16bg or 32gb mem card for £16, i was dubious at first but went to buy because of sellers good rep and they were all sold out.

What firmware does that PSTV have?

Nintendo consoles use SD memory cards. It's only Sony who are thieving scumbags in that area.

Not sure of Vita memory cards, but personal experience of buying PSP memory cards on eBay but make me VERY vary. I went for sellers with good rep too and the cards seemed fine, only problem was they were fakes. One failed completely after a few months and another would only fit half the data it was supposed to. Seller didn't answer any eBay messages and I was too late to raise a complaint through eBay or PayPal and even though he was still selling them, they refused to act.
I had the last laugh though, I did have his postal address and passed it on to his local Trading Standards who confirmed they had had a number of complaints of him selling fake stuff (not just through eBay), and were going to act.

This is definitely not enough space. Don't do it! Get a 64gig one or you'll regret it very quickly! My 32gig card filled up fast. It's still a great investment but I wish the 64 had been available when I bought mine.

Cheapest I can see is still DX:
http://www.dx.com/p/memory-card-for-ps-vita-64g-852313876
(copy & paste the link)
That's about the cheapest you'll find for a 64GB card.
The ones on sites like DX etc are actually Japanese imports because the memory cards for Vita are usually cheapest in Japan.
