No, I'm pretty sure that's what it actually costs.

OK, let's try Insight. (Sure, they're not the cheapest people around...)

Adobe Photoshop CS4: £587
Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection: £2,420
Adobe Creative Suite 4 Production Premium: £1,815

I'm not making these numbers up!

(Photoshop Elements, however, is only £60 - which matches other prices 
I've seen around.)

I cannot believe it's the same product. Not for 1/3rd of the price. It 
can't be.

Then again, you said you got the price from a US website? Last time I 
checked [back when £1 = $2], Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional was £400 in 
the UK and $400 in the US. (IOW, the UK version was 2x the price.) I 
don't know if that's still the case...
