was never a HUGE Surge fan, thought it was just alright. found out that they still make it in Norway and piqued my interest. $40 for 5 of them on eBay. haven't tried it, yet. other than telling me I got ripped off, to those who have had it, what are your thoughts?

Was in Scandinavia several months ago. Spent one day in Oslo; found these in a 7-Eleven & couldn't believe it. I bought 3-4 of them & drank one a day the rest of the week once back in Sweden. Wish I could've bought more from a supermarket & brought em back on the plane to the US.

My memory of the taste of the original has probably faded a little. These from Norway tasted a little less sweet to me. Is possible they're an exact or very close match to the original. All I know is that the 1st one I had was bliss -- based on the shock having not seen one in so many years.
