You don't get VAT refunds when buying in US and importing into Europe. Technically you should pay VAT on the phone when you come back to the EU from the USA
The US does not have a VAT. Sales taxes are set by the States and cities.
You can not purchase it tax free unless you are a US registered non-profit.

U.S. prices are before sales tax.
For instance, if you bought a phone in New York City whose price was $1000 USD, there would be $88.75 USD in combined State, City, and Transportation District taxes, and so you'd need to pay $1088.75 USD. (Tax rate from: New York City – Department of Finance – New York State sales and use tax
Los Angeles appears to have a 9.5% sales tax. So if you bought a $1000 USD phone there, you'd pay $1095.00 USD.
Could you please give more details on that? Vat is already included in iphone price here in USA. How may I buy it without it technically?
