Until you know what a retailer pays for his product claiming gouging is not playing fair. Again, if you are at WM and don't want to pay the $17 get back in your car and go find somewhere that sells it cheaper. Its called free enterprise! Heck, open your own store and give it away!

STORY::: A gentleman once told me that my prices were wayyy too high! Said I was gouging the customers. (sound familiar?). So he opened his own business... good for him. He "gave" away his product for about a year then ran out of money. We've been doing this for almost 40 years now. Lots of repeat customers. You can't do that without being fair!

Just my .02

BTW, its nice to just order what you need from Rick. Maybe not the cheapest but you get good advise on what works and not too much driving to do! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" /> Even if your dog eats your new main sheets!
