I haven't checked all their prices but have just done a comparison between
Elecraft and QRP.DE on the purchase of a P3 kit.

From Elecraft, including USPS shipping and 20% VAT, at $1.60 to £1;  £575.

From QRP.DE, including shipping and German VAT, at €1.17 to £1; £680.

I haven't bothered with a calculation for someone in the Eurozone buying
both ways, but for the UK there's no doubt that direct from Elecraft is
significantly cheaper, despite relative high shipping costs.  As a matter
of comparison, at today's exchange rate, the P3 would cost the equivalent
of £440 collected in person from Aptos.

I did a similar check some time ago on the K3 and came to much the same
relative difference.
