Am I allowed to sound off here - sorry if not.

Sorry about the title - a bit of a mouth full really. But I am really
shocked with what I found out tonight regarding David costing for there add
on accessories.

Its not just the accessories, look at the price of that stations US / vs
UK
Anyone would think that the exchange rate was about 75p to the dollar not
nearly two dollars to the pound. And davis make it very difficult for
anyone to sell to the UK as the have an 'exclusive' deal with ICS.
Just buy a UK from the US and have it sent to France save lots of money.
example davis vantage pro wireless from US $535 (approx £300 at most)
Ok you need to add vat shipiing and duty I reckon £400 tops.
Uk price ohh about £600
UV sensor from US £399
Complete atation with UV etc etc #6160 WIRELESS VANTAGE PRO PLUS w/STD.
RADIATION SHIELD INCLUDES FREE SNOW GAUGE $895.00

Talk about rip off britain.
