I wanted to get some stuff for my husband from the UK and all the stores online that do import goods to the US charge anywhere from 30 to 70% more than the actual cost. That is insane. Like something that would cost 50 pence in the UK is $3 here. I tried looking around too and very few shops offer much. It is very frustrating. It seems like it would be easier just to have some family ship stuff to us but the shipping is apparently very expensive. Do you notice this in your area?
