Buying Dreamweaver CS4 from the USA

Looking to buy Dreamweaver CS4 from the USA to take advantage of the price difference (£389 in UK, $329 in US)
Even with duty, customs etc I think I could save £100. Which makes all the difference at the moment.
Can anyone recommend any sites in the US that ship software to the UK. Amazon.com only ships books, CDs, DVDs etc and not software or electricals.
Have considered a US PO Box and then shipping here but just adds extra costs on.
Ebay.com is out too, as I am a bit wary of fakes etc.

I've tried to get this as well but all the US sites seem to check your IP address and if you are from the UK will not let you purchase the software.0

AFAIK, there is not import ban on Adobe software :S and if it is anything like the UK, shops just buy it as a item... no need to sign a agreement e.t.c.
Personally, for business I needed the Master Suite CS3 a few years ago and with the price diffrence, (Over £1500 if I remember), I bought a flight to the US and had a little holiday!
probably the people not wanting to sell abroad are because of fraud more than anything else, and it is more likly that if you try the smaller computer shop, offer to wait until payment has cleared or email them e.t.c. they would be more willing to ship.0
