Do we therefore reduce the amt. that a US kit can cost to reflect this 35-58% premium? If so, by how much?

A price limit is a good idea but as for accounting for the preminum, we shouldnt do that. Its pretty much "you have x value to work with , what can you get with each methodolgy". at least thats what I think
I do notice that stuff is REALLY EXPENSIVE. I'm not going to be able to do this for under 150 US
