Duratec ARP Rod Bolts - Price variation
How come these are listed at vastly different prices:
SBD £74.85!!!!
http://www.sbdev.co.uk/Duratec/Pistons_Rods_Bolts_Bearings.htm
Burton: £61.50 https://www.burtonpower.com/product_main.aspx?dets_product.aspx?PSet=97&sTxt=ARP%20duratec
Caterham: £13.51!!!!
https://www.caterhamparts.co.uk/index.php?cPath=137_138
Am I missing something? Caterham seem too cheap?
Similarly burton charge £38 for the front bolt and washer combo, Caterham list it at a fiver?!

That seems way too cheap for a set of ARP bolts, especialy from Caterham who are hardly renown for bargain prices. Very probably a misprice IMO.

With Caterham - thats probably EACH rather than a set 
x8 = £108.08. Definately more of a Caterham style price

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth...
If you need them, buy them.
I may buy a set "just in case"

but it states "ARP Big End Bolt - 1 Pack of 8 - R400 Duratec £13.51
(ex VAT £11.50"
so that should be 8, unless they are false advertisment which is against the law.

Funny it reads to me as " 1 pack of 8"
not "1 of a pack of 8"
And no punctuation to make you think otherwise.
Very strange indeed.
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Agreed it states 1 pack of 8.
Likewise, front crank bolt (a SINGLE bolt so no ambiguity) is drastically cheaper than elsewhere.....
I'll place the order and see what happens. if 1 bolt turns up there'll be trouble
