So... $35, but all official (as in linked from the original site) shops are selling it at 30 GBP (41.63 USD).

As far as I can tell $35 is approximately £26 ex VAT which is then 20% additional cost for UK customers i.e the £30 prices your seeing at most UK resellers, aimed at UK customers.

You're right. They should probably point this out in the blog post itself right next to the price.

If you order and ship to the US, you don't pay the VAT. You might get hit with foreign transaction fees and shipping, through.
