Shipping to the UK?

Hello Folks,
I did the crankshaft purchase on Jegs who have a nice 4.000 crank on offer!
Its free shipping to you guys in the USofA, lovley indeed.

But the shipping was $250 plus taxes (to the UK) which is over double what Ebay Global charge?
I suppose that is how it is from now on...
Stuff is just more expensive for us Brits!
Many thanx for all your comments.
