TLDR; it was cheaper to fly to NYC from London, buy the suite there, then go back, than it was to just buy it in the UK.

When I was living in the UK in 2005, it was cheaper to fly to new york and buy a IBM Thinkpad Laptop, than it was to buy one in the UK. The US price in dollars was the same as the UK price in pounds, even thought $2=£1. And the return flight to new york was only £200. Buy two, and you could make a nice little profit.
