Air purifier filter - impossible to buy in the uk?

[deeps]

Hi all, I bought a Vicks V-9071 Hepa air purifier on ebay, which has a replacable filter (Honeywell 16216 filter). I've searched everywhere and can't find anywhere that sells them in this country, loads in America but the price of postage means I might aswell throw the unit away.

It's not an obscure model, even Argos sells it but not the filters as far as I can see.

Anyone else have one of these and can point me to where to buy filters please?

As Argos are still selling this product, why not just Argos customer services a ring in the morning on 0191 387 0950?

How about this?

It says it is for the vicks one and the honeywell 16200, if you look at the vicks one it looks identical to yours.

It looks right but I can't tell for sure.
