Annoyingly, this will then be listed as £26UK in our bookstores.
Or perhaps £30 or £35. I often see books for sale here for which British suppliers charge 50 per cent and more in sterling than US consumers are paying in dollars. But of course it's worth it for our *fantastic* all-year-round beach-wear climate - that's why we're all that lovely bronze colour.
Yet $26US is actually the equivalent of approx' £14UK or £15UK. Be glad you don't live in rip off Britain.
