Default Coolant Temperature Sensors for $7??

Does anyone think there’s a reason NOT to buy these for $7?
Incredible price difference between the two...

No reason, they are all over at that sort of price:

And even JCP has them for under 40 quid.

That genuine Jaguar item that Barratts are advertising comes direct from Jaguar Classic Parts. They procure from Jaguar as if they were a Jaguar dealership.

So either Jaguar are pricing high for the us market compared to the UK prices, or else Barratts are applying an exchange rate of 2:1 for the $
