I have carried a dozen iPhones the other way on more than one occasion - in my carryon - and customs in AMS and Madrid didn't even ask.
Do you mean iphones cost $199 in Belgium?

Mobistar in Belgium would sell them for Euro 500 unlocked and they seem to have taken them offline now..

Or can one get a $199 iphone in the US unlocked w/o contract and bring them back to AMS?
