The kickstarter price was $15 and said that it would be a discount over the final price, but the pre-order is only $12.50.  Not that it matters much, but am I reading something wrong?

Shipping and Handling will make ordering from that link $15.50 in total. Buying it off the Kickstarter and choosing the pick-up option is still the cheapest option.

SRP is $15.00. However we can't really control the price any distributor chooses to sell it at.
