I'm looking at a weird and cool guitar. UK prices are crazy, US prices are crazy too, but in a much better way. Think that it isn't being imported into the UK in any numbers which is probably partly why the dollar price is less than the pound price.
It'd work out much cheaper to import it I reckon, I'd need to figure out what potential customs charges I could get hit with, but it seems they are often, how to say, avoidable.
It's not something that should suffer too badly if shipped, it's intended to be a travel guitar anyway.

Thinking that this might be my birthday present to myself in February and I'm trying to figure the practicalities of getting one from over there, over here.
