I'm guessing people on here are happy to half there wage to buy all these things at half the price ...can't understand why anyone would even think that way .I'm 100 % with you and others , I'm happy to buy at the price that reflects my wages , and keep the bloke down the road in a job ...for those that want 5 bucks an hour so they can buy an f150 for 30 grand ...your on your own . And you keep supporting those low income nations as that's what we will become ....
