How much????

[transpond]

wanted detachable front grill with headlights for 8540. The zetor prices I'm being quoted are unbelievable. Devon UK and I'm being quoted 650 for something that can only be worth 25% of that quoted price.

Thanks for offer but.... still too expensive, the parts are not worth buying at more than 150. I am talking to my insurance company but this part is way over priced. Other parts I have bought have seemed reasonably priced.
Why do Zetor charge so much for this part??

I don't have idea why they charge too much.

Where are you located ?

Dave, North Devon, UK. Both my two nearest Zetor agents are quoting silly money for this part even the insurance co. are querying the pricing.

Hi, from south of the Moor, I was going to suggest you rang Gibbings of Chumleigh who can occasionally come up with parts like that.
Happy Christmas

Well Dave, if you see this post, please contact me, because i think I can help you. You see, in Croatia the prices are a little bit lower then in UK. I just bought 1 headlight and a front grill for my 5211 for just about 40. I think that's a nice price.

Insurance has agreed too pay....meantime the front grill has again risen in price another 15% during the past month!
Anyone else bought any Zetor parts recently and been shocked?

The zetor prices I'm being quoted are unbelievable.

Perhaps it is because some former managers of Toyota now run the company ?? Toyota is notorious for overpricing their parts.... If you buy one Toyota in separate parts, you could buy a dozen of mercedes for the same money ?

Dorde hit the nail on the head. 40 in Croatia vs the silly money you were quoted from Beno. IMHO most of these so called "distributors" will milk the market for what they can get out of it without adding any value.
