I bought mine through supercheap about 6 months ago, full sweep mechanical cobalt 30/20 and it was about $120. Take the gauge part number in with you and go to a different store. Unfortunately some SCA staff have no idea what they are talking about...

Cost me less to buy both from the USA, than it did for one from Australia.

Usually works out at least 40% cheaper and you can get at least three guages mailed over at the same cost as one, so if you want guages - order up big.
