John,
I've had the same problem, I have written to Lucky and have been told that when they update the site they will either show the prices in HKD or have a curency (sp) converter. The simple way is divide the price by 1.7 USD which give you the Stirling price.

John, 
Here's a handy little conversion site.
I normally just open a new window when using it, to shop overseas to figure things out.

I have to laugh, because, I would always have a hard time finding the converter in my long list of book marks. I finally got smart, or woke up  :-) and now have it saved as a desktop shortcut.

I'd love to do that too... But I'd never find it amongst all the other desktop shortcuts.
