Yes, they are quite cheap in "Lego Units". And they are not as much pricey
wrt. US prices,too (only 10-12% higher). Actually I have nice friends from
RTL/lugnet for this, but price difference seems as not much to compansate
shipping costs. Considering the size of TIE/Y-Wing set, for example, about
20$ for surface (it takes months) and 30$ for airmail seems reasonable, and
this results in a higher overall cost.
