Buying from Nippy Normans in the UK

I was looking at a few items for my new R1200GS on the Nippy Normans in the UK website. Specifically, verholen bar risers, wunderlich cruise control, and a tank pad set. I am confused about the pricing. After subtracting the V.A.T. tax and using the currency conversion chart, it appears that the verholen bar risers are around 50% cheaper than buying from a USA distributor. Am I misinterputing something here? This seems too good to be true.
 
I have ordered items (fender extender, knee pads, etc.) from Nippy Norman's and did so on faith alone.

Bad call, except they did have certain items I could not find elsewhere.

Prices (in American dollars) turned out to be a little on the high end. Didn't break the bank, but they are pricey.

Good Luck.

Also I once ordered wunderlich product from them; they cannot ship that to the US because BMW Santa Cruz has the US exclusive on wunderlich parts. I ordered what I wanted of that from them.
