    Scored!

    Priced some Supercharge Allrounders today,,
    was told 199 for a MRV70 and 214 for a MRV 87.
    The mrv 87 is rated at 120A/H,, and the 70 only at 105, so for another 30 bucks(for two) I get another 30 hours battery supply, bargain!!

    so off the Hervey Bay, walked into the shop, no-one home,,, coee'd, stood in the door bell path,, nothing. after 5 mins walked next door to find the owner yacking to his mate,,

    I told him what batteries I was after and he tells me he made a mistake and the retail price is $290!!!, but then said the original price was fine,, and billed me for 199ea!!!
