Idealo, a price comparison site, has undergone a price analysis of 6 different tech products across Europe and has found that in 4 out of 6 cases, the prices from UK retailers exceed those of their European competitors, yareah.com reports.

The best offers on identical products were compared on idealo’s international websites in the UK, Germany, France and Italy.

Moreover, the study reveals that consumers in Germany purchase, generally, lower priced items such as external hard drives, speakers and smartphones, whereas Italian online shoppers pay less for LCD TVs and games consoles.
