I don't get how 9Lives has not yet been taken to court for blatant false advertising.
No matter how you slice it, their test costs 174€, plus 20€ for the certificate, not the list price of 59€. Ditto if you got their "45€" sale, which really was 160€. Unless there is an actual feasible way to get the 100€ subsidy from KELA and avoid the 15€ service charge, this is just a big lie. Thing is, AFAIK, if you are referred by KELA, you pay
nothing (and KELA gives 9Lives 100€).
At least the other vendors seem to be a little more honest about their cartel-graded price. I understand that shipping the test supplies to Finland might be a little more expensive than to continental Europe. But how is the price more than double what it is in France, where living standards are basically identical (or 2 to 8% lower depending on sources)?
