What is the value of electronic goods that I can take out of the USA when I travel back to the UK?

The USA doesn’t care what you export in your luggage – most US airlines depart their international flights from their domestic terminals, and you are therefore not inspected any differently than a domestic passenger. That said, they are looking for cash, so don’t try and bring hundreds of thousands of dollars in currency through screening unless you want a very long night. Of course, how you declare your bag of electronics when you arrive in the UK is another story.
