I've spoken to Bob, I doubt he would describe Henry as his UK distributer  after all anyone can order directly from Bob or Mike and collect in Hamm 
If you do decide to order, I would strongly advise you to make sure you have a photo ID of the snake you are ordering, it's weight (yes it may be 2 months away but at least you will know the min size it will be and then you won't be disappointed if you ended up with a 120gram snake ) and also ask for a written guarantee that the snake was produced by Bob or Mike

Good points there Scott
personally i'd prefer to actually see the animal in the flesh before i buy, not make a decision based on one pic.
Plus there are plenty of reasonably priced royals here in the uk |

surely a top uk supplier would travel to a show to pick up his animals wouldnt he?surely he wouldnt rely on someone else to fetch them back for him?

So does he just get together a few buyers whack a few quid on and then get them shipped over?..surely anyone could do this as like you say Bob will sell to other people within the Uk?
I suppose what he makes covers the cost of a snake or 2 for himself..

would he also be liable for paying tax on importing them if he is doing it as a commercial venture ? unlike a hobbyist who just picks them up himself from Hamm ?
