Hi Tinfang,
I think it was your response (and ones like it) through the Tolkien.co.uk forums that got the international support added... the following message from the forum administrator over there was posted last night:
I did manage to get my two copies ordered (have to have them delivered in the UK and then reshipped to me to get around the publisher's limitations) but it is doable for those US people with good friends in the UK.

Thanks for letting us know! That's an interesting price indeed, because I've seen much higher prices for the first edition of the Dutch translation (which was the first in the world). For a mint set, prices are going up to 750 euros...

Bubb Kuyper in The Netherlands has two Tolkien related lots for sale this week. Use the link above to contact sales reps for more information. Prices seem remarkably low, so someone over there (or willing to bid remotely) might get a good deal. If anyone tries to see these or buy them, let me know how it goes!
