I suspect this range has been hit quite badly by the Euro exchange rate, I import goods from France, and prices of goods in the Eurozone are starting to look a bad deal.

Current rate is about 1.2 to the pound, and if the rate was close to a year ago of 1.45 these stablisers would probably be closer to £250. Using the calculation of (304*1.2)/1.45.

As stocks of European archery stuff starts to be replaced, and dealers are issued with updated catalogues, I am sure we are going to see some significant price hikes. Whereas US and far Eastern stuff will probably remain about the same.

You're right, the Euro value of them is remaining the same. About €400 here I think. Which is still a lot.
