I see it. http://www.astak.com/ezreader/step1.asp

It's below, after all the EZ PPro.

Strange... I went there and it was right there at the bottom

I just looked again, still not there for me. This is strange.

Maybe it blocks certain countries out from seeing it?

I have discovered that I can't see the batteries while using firefox (which I usually use). However, I can see it with IE.

Anyway it's great that they are up now. Does anyone know if the shipping is still $40 for the battery? Seems a bit much.

Wow, that's exactly right. I suggest these guys get an html validator and check their web pages.

I would believe so. I just loaded IE in my VirtualBox install. $40 shipping is the only option.

Is it just me or does the website display clearer under IE than Firefox? I use Ubuntu and just loaded my XP install in VB and noticed how clear and crisp the page appears compared to FF on Ubuntu.

Yeah I saw it, But $40 shipping is way over the top

I think they need to add another inc option for batteries.

diokdin · 11-23-2009, 01:11 PM

Yeah $40 shipping is way too much to ship a battery.

You might update your profile to show your general location (City, Country).
Maybe others nearby can contact you and pool a battery order.

The first pound is the expensive one

Note: There may be a safety limit on how many can be in a single package. Astak should know how many by now.

Astak really needs to consider adjusting their packaging and using
Flat rate mailing sizes

Using the wrong

package can cost a lot more on International shipping. There are magic sizes and weight combinations to avoid
