Omodos,

Sorry to hear the high prices in your country for AGM battery. My price for the Duracell AGM battery I bought was just under €150.

Even with international shipping from a US reseller you shouldn't even come close to €2000 for one.

Mike

I'll live thanks, and you are probably correct but once over here it is liable to extra taxes as it is an item that has arrived from outside of the European union, coupled with the fact IF the item for whatever reason is faulty I am stuck , cant just take it back means have to ship it back etc....so i think the cost benefits are outweighed by the risks

Makes me jealous, cheapest branded one i can get hold of is the same spec but varta for 220euros, do the exchange rate conversion feels we are really really being ripped off out here
