Is that really a great find, considering that a lot of Leopolds are going for ~$100 shipped?

Please do link me where one can find a lot of Leopold FC700Rs easily obtainable (besides ordering through Hendy) for $100 shipped for those of us in North America.

You mean FC200R, which are around 2 years old.

I see this guy in white and graphite for $120 before shipping, new. If you'd look at classifieds (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=47218.0)
Also, I admit that I was mistaken, because I saw a FC660M going for $100 shipped. I didn't think that it being a TKL or compact would make significant differences in price, but obviously there are some slight increases.

I would imagine the shipping would be pretty expensive though, maybe $30 to $40 to the US.

I wouldn't be certain on that. China at least has extremely cheap shipping to the U.S. (less than $2.00 for a laid out keycap set), so maybe this won't be so bad. On the other hand, U.S. to there would certainly be expensive.

Check out this guy is selling it for 130$ shipped also: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=51720.msg1140083#msg1140083
I bought the Filco from him and it came pretty much as he described it, like new. This is a brown switch tho but I can guarantee you it will come in better condition than the ebay seller.

I did ask him for a shipping quote a while back and I recall that with shipping to my location in the US would make the total price at least $160.

I might be missing something.

I see something similar listed on mechkb.com for $129 as well. (http://www.mechkb.com/leopold-fc700r-tenkeyless-mechanical-keyboard)

Is "graphite housing" the difference between the two products, or is that just marketese for "black?"

Yes but the cheapest shipping to the US is $49 which will make the board more like $180 rather than $130.
