When I ordered my C40 a few months ago I also ordered from the UK site....I didn't even know there was a US one at the time. They did not direct me there or anything. So even in the US it saved me some $$, don't remember exactly the exchange was $740 and the US site had it listed at $754 or something....savings was enough for a case of beer anyway.
Link is wrong for US site BTW........
