That's assuming the publishers on both sides of the pond are charging close to the same price for the book.
Compare the US prices of
The Forever War series:

https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/forever-peace-1
https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/forever-free-2
to the UK prices for the same books:
https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/the-forever-war-1
https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/forever-peace
https://www.kobo.com/gb/en/ebook/forever-free
It would not be unreasonable to assume that under normal circumstances, Open Road Media does not want its users getting access to the cheaper Orion/Gateway editions.
