Where did you guys get these from? And did you have to pay sticker price?

I got mine on the net from Servaas Products. I think this is the only way you can get them, as Servaas are the distributors in Australia:

For those who need to charge batteries other than AA or AAA, you can buy the C808M which has the same features, but will charge C & D batteries as well.

Yes but your batteries will last a life time, or you go down a cheaper route and end up with batteries that don't hold their charge and paying for replacements.
