I checked and they have the same price shipped to a UK address, which implies the VAT (Vale Added Tax) is included (which it normally is in UK quoted sales prices), but overseas sales outside the EU are VAT exempt. VAT is 20% which is quite substantial on a large purchase of this nature, so I would contact them and ask for their VAT exempt pricing.
You most likely will have to stump for import duties this end, so more reason to avoid double dipping.

That’s a great price, when I have seen them on eBay that have been over $1000. That said they show as GBP719 delivered when I look on the link which at 1.3 FX to the USD makes them $935? You are not using the Euro FX by mistake are you?
Brits don’t like that funny money!
