Isn't this more about them signing an exclusive deal with retrolemon than choosing to not ship to the UK?
It could be but I haven't seen anything about it, but this article may give a general clue as to what's going on:
EU VAT rules
Retro lemon also posted this:
Lotharek/RetroLemon
Seems like it's been that way for some time since Brexit, but I have to say I hadn't noticed before.

OK, so I had a reply from RetroLemon about the Amiga 500 8MB/IDE adapter, and they should have stock next week, they are in transit, so that is something at least.

No price though? I imagine it will be approx 30% more than the price on Lotharek's site based on what RetroLemon marked up the MouSTer. Hopefully not too offensive. (£79.99?)

I've been checking for it on their website but no sign of it when I last looked yesterday, and the price on Lothareks site was IIRC £69.95.
I imagine it's going to be more from Retrolemon.co.uk.

I think you may have looked it up in Euros when you were thinking of shipping to your house in France?

It's certainly possible.

Hmm...
Last November I ordered the latest Ultrasatan from Lotharek (the 2k23 model)
and it was $109.42, delivered to me in the US. So that's pln to dollars.
Just recently, because I thought Retro Lemon UK was still selling the previous
v1.2 model, I ordered another internal US from them. It was $113.99 delivered,
again in the US. That's British pounds to dollars.
So I guess it just depends on where you are and the conversion rate?
