Great to hear merlin, and wish it was still 1960's prices eh!
As we can all appreciate, the problem is getting enough of a 'batch' of parts made to keep the 'unit' price reasonable. Steve Gollings has always said this, and getting anything made can often require considerable investment for the traders. Great if the parts are flying off the shelves, but harder to justify if the trader gets stuck with unsold stock!
I tend to take the view that 'it costs what it costs' (within reason of course, and caveat emptor as always!), and I'm just glad that there are still good quality parts out there to be had these days. It's a lot better now than it was years ago, by all accounts!

Did it come with a filter element inside? I have seen one that was purchased from VS and it was only the outer shell, no filter element. Originally this was felt wrapped round wire gauze & bent zig zag pattern.
