You need to compare the same relays. The early relays with the screw on
terminals for the BN1 thru the BJ7 are $189.00 and the later relays with the
push on terminals for the BJ8 are $37.00.
The difference is that the later relay is used on all British cars up to the
late 70s so there are a lot more cars that need them. Simple matter of
supply and demand.

Subject: [Healeys] Overdrive Relay
Can someone tell me why the overdrive relay costs $189 at Moss, only $44 two
places on Ebay and only $25 at Victoria British? When I look up the same
relay on the Holden site, they say it is a 12V normally open all purpose
relay that was used on Jaguars for the horns. They sell it for 38.50
pounds. I suppose it will work for the overdrive, but there has to be
something going on with such a big price difference at Moss. And what the
heck is Victoria British selling for $25?
