Nope not me, darn that would have been pretty cool.

Jim:
It's no wonder that folks have taken to calling these guys 'stealers" rather than dealers.

I'm a wholesale rep. so it is part of my nature to try to look at profit margins. I don't begrudge making a profit, heck it's what makes the world go round in the good old USA.

I determine who is an authorized distributor for the products I represent. If I caught one of my dealers putting these kind of margins on replacement parts I would end our business relationship the same day.

I guess I feel for the folks who pay 28.00 for an 11.00 dollar item. Easier for us gearheads to spot a ripoff like this. Not so easy for the mechanically disinclined.

And it is a ripoff.
