Actually I tried the UK route and things looked cheaper but in the end with the charges to your credit card for currency exchange and the currency rate changes and its less then what you see the day you buy it. Plus anything heavy costs an arm and a leg.
9 pound rotors for a disco one uK ended up costing more then what AB could quote you.

What he said.
Add that the US dollar is not worth crap right now, the British pound is worth more, so is the Euro.

I personally find the prices at Rovers North to be very competitive.

Not a bad price, but you'll probably have to pay some sort of duty on it.

British Pacific is $299 plus shipping, of about $30.
