I got that same email with my only order, so far. I wrote back and asked if there was any kind of a shipping refund since shipping from NY via USPS had to be cheaper than international shipping from Thailand. I was told it actually cost more for the product since he had to pay duty on it when it entered the country. While I believe he had to pay import fees, I suspect that's why the prices are slightly higher on the US site. I think it is something of a rip-off that, as I recall, the shipping charges are the same on both sites, yet the US site most likely ships out of NY. I'm glad I at least found the coupon code for the 10% discount before I placed the order.
