Import duty and vat.
US sales tax is on average 9%
UK VAT rate is 20%. UK import duty depends on the value of the goods. For a single item less than 600 sterling it's not a big deal but for a million units it is. All this is factored in the price you end up paying.

For something that is digital and therefore has no processing or shipping? Thats bullshit.
