What—you mean you don't speak Chinese or Japanese, like the rest of us?  :?D

$35 actually seems high.  They were ~$26 for a while.  Don't recall if shipping was included at that price.

The shipping for these boards used to be many times the actual cost, over $100 iirc.

Not in the US.  Badwrench is correct, when the price was around $25, shipping was around $13

Well, no help there.  Seller is still charging for shipping outside the US.   Twice the board price to the UK.

Oh no I already have one and even made a video review of it ^^ . I traded for a USB-converted one with a European, that way I circumvented the shipping and converting issues. Thanks for the offer though :D .
