Absolutely ridiculous. Lets keep in mind that Helix are the industry standard in high quality thermostats. I happen to use Herpstats (www.spyderrobotics.com) and they are an excellent stat but they don't have the many, many years of proven experience that the Helix brand does. If you want a Helix, you can get it from Rich at Reptile Basics (www.reptilebasics.com). He is a super guy and gets your order out extremely fast via a trackable carrier. Just my opinion...
