I cant remember exactly, around £15 a box but could be wrong.
Its a two part epoxy, heat resistant and tough as old boots.
What do you want it for?
History; It was originally designed to fill the VC bullet holes in the US Marine's Heuys because they didnt want the folks back home to think their boys were in danger.
The last one I bought was Wilko rapid epoxy ,resin and hardener............................................Aradite as far as I am concerned
some are better than others
I have some that was --er--- acquired from the aero industry---fantastic stuff, down to my last box of it
Dave---have you tried the stuff that comes in tubs from guides and blanks? pretty good stuff and has about 10-15mins life---far cheaper than buying those poxy little tubes of araldite

I think I have tried that stuff but it didn't suit me for what I was using it for. I mostly use Araldite for glueing tip rings so a pack lasts me yonks. I use other glues for jobs that need more glue. I buy them in big bottles which work out cost effective.
I had to turn off that video after 15 seconds, that yanks voice was incredibly annoying
