Same boat too. I probably ended up around $250 all-in including shipping.
The most ridiculous piece is that shipping in 1 wave only saves US$3. US$38 down to US$35. You'd think that sending a SINGLE international package would save significantly over them having to send TWO packages. So I switched my pledge to shipping in two waves.... for $3, I might as well get my base game 6 months earlier than I would otherwise. This shipping cost and issue leaves me disappointed.
