Hi - I know the $20 is a bit shocking given that the item is only $35. Unfortunately, Newark element14 isn't stocking in the US warehouse currently. This means the only option is to have it direct shipped from the Farnell warehouse in the UK. This option is available for almost all Farnell items on Newark.com which can be helpful in some situations.
I did place an order, too. I'd prefer to pay just $35 plus nominal shipping, but I still consider it a bargain for the specs. I think because Raspberry Pi is UK-based, unfortunately, folks in North America will have to pay extra for shipping until it is eventually stocked in our region.

I missed out by just a few - though would have been OK with the $20 shipping. Just glad that this isn't happening so now I will order an extra for my projects!
