Booksonboard price for Unseen Academicals - $19.99
Booksonboard UK price for Unseen Academicals - £18.24 (Roughly $30.00)

And why do I have to pay 50% more in the UK? Answer is I don't. I simply don't buy the book.

Edit : Emailed Booksonboard in disgust. Don't see it changing anything :P

Edit Edit : I emailed Harper Collins too.

And I checked to see what price fixing laws are. As far as I can see if this was within the UK it might even be illegal. But I'm no lawyer!
