Well i hope that they will be a lot cheaper than they are in the UK.

I got 2 of these on a special offer at my lfs for £45 the pair.

And they wouldn't sell them to me unless i took them a sample
of my water.

Yea, I've started looking around online and they are about 25 bucks a piece...which is (I'm not up on the current exchange rate) would be, what? 45 pounds (euros? again, in the US.....not sure)
