Sorry not trying to be rude but how to do you get $450. Just did a quick google search and at todays exchange rate €200 is about USD $220 for a new DS4/ATX40 (yes i know the post is for a 50)
I have ordered lots or apeks regs from this site maybe 6 DST/XTX50 combos and they were about $400 per set. So I am not to sure how you got $450 for a DS4/ATX40
Yes, you are correct at that exchange rate, but I said "based in Spain" because as I understand it Apeks/Aqualung is quite restrictive about regional pricing where it's cheaper in Europe than it is in America. $450 is roughly based on $400 for a DS4/ATX40 on Amazon in America + applicable taxes + $28 conversion kit from the UK.
I'm not sure if you can get those Apeks regs shipped from that dealer in Spain to America or not, because Aqualung might revoke that dealer's status for breaking their regional pricing scheme by selling to American customers. I could be wrong about that restriction too. But if you indeed can and it's cheaper after import duties and shipping considered, then I stand corrected.
For example, I see that an FSR/XTX200 set goes for 404 EUR ($452) on there but the same set goes for $800 in America. Huge difference.
