Wow, your a cool kid!

Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo....
and that makes you cool.... hmmm

Wow...I think someone is having their period! Water weight, bloating, cramping and moodiness. It must be a heavy day.



Charging someone "out the ass" doesn't imply fairness or even a well thought out business model.  :slap:
Wow, burn... glad the third grade period humor came out from someone probably in their 30's.

 Most business's charge obscene markups, also the reason how many stay in business. The average Joe doesn't know the actual cost of the product or service. So if you are at or equal to what the market will handle you can charge that much. For example a gear oil change in your t-case at a grease monkey is $39.99... Takes less than 10 minutes to drain and refill, takes about four pints i believe. Labor is about five bucks the fluid is $0.75 bulk price from Rex Oil. Total company cost is around $8, markup of $31.... doesn't seem fair, but that what we charge and people pay it. I am not saying i believe it is right, i am saying it is what happens. Market driven prices is how this economy runs and turns such a large profit for so many business'.
