I would like to ask why it is so expensive (350 pounds) in your area. amainhobbies is selling it for $450 USD from the US. That's 290 pounds.

If your area is really 350 pounds then that's $550 USD.
Dont forget to add UK VAT (20%) to your calculations plus a possible import duty of around 3%, makes your £290 become £358 and that is only if you compare the "banks" exchange rate today of 1.58, real time transactions between buinsess are taking place at more like 1.52 at present.....

A kit purchased today (should they be avialable) at that price would be approx £365 before any shipping costs or delivery surcharges are added
