I doubt that you could justify the cost and availability with last years rules. Remember the prepegs are shipped refrigerated next day delivery from the manufacturer. The shipping costs almost guarantee the cost is over the rule limit.
I'm almost positive that you don't include shipping costs in your accounting. It's far too variable from team to team for it to make sense. Including shipping would probably cut the robot budgets of Hawaii and Alaska teams by a significant margin. Similarly, I don't think you include sales taxes or VAT.
