    Your point is ?

    I paid £60 for the exactly same thing minus the Robert Bosch logo.

    I was not arguing about the high prices but pointing out your mis-information that Halfords sell "non brand" batteries when in fact all their batteries are Varta-Bosch whatever label they have on them.

    The cheaper one's are non-brand, cheaply made in china no doubt!
    But what im saying is you'd get a Varta for less than the non-brand rubbish ;)

    I've a trade card with Halfords, the stuff the sell is usually good quality, and branded. Their own brand stuff is very good as well.
