Question about my amazon.es order and deal?

I started subscribing to the email of special deals from blu-ray.com and I noticed a lot of recommended Amazon deals are in Spain, Italy, and other countries. Using a Google browser helped me with instant English translation by a right-click on my mouse.

I compared my amazon.es purchase with the amazon.com prices and saw some very good savings, even though I had to pay for international standard shipping (estimated 3 weeks):

MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION - 1954
EXODUS - 1960
BEAU GESTE - 1939
ELMER GANTRY - 1960

The above Blu-ray Classics worked out to $7.82 each (31.31), but the shipping was an extra $2.88 each (11.53 shipping) plus an extra $3.29 currency exchange which brought the average up to $11.53ea.

Question: Although I saved money versus using amazon.com, and although one title is not even available in the USA, is there any other method available to save on the international shipping to the USA? If not, did I do okay - or am I missing something?

PS: I am an Amazon Prime Member, but my free shipping is only available in the USA.
