Only one costs more, but not $2 more. The remaining three are cheaper in the UK than in the US - some special deal from the publishers? Or just Amazon's weird discounting?

Oddly enough, having just checked in the European store, prices there match the UK store but are ex-VAT. I can't imagine how they're going to do that. Perhaps they'll add on the VAT at checkout, because it'll be different for each EU country.
As far as I can see, they don't add, for example, Danish VAT to the price - but I will be looking out for it. Amazon UK collects Danish VAT on anything I buy from them, so I am aware of the issue.
