And since when does price overcome "QUALITY", show me a person that only
compares prices and I'll show you a man that usually spends 3 to 4 times
what anyone else spends, lots of very cheap "FAR-EAST" junk out there, try
your luck, and lastly any business that has a 25% M/U will not be around
very long. Your car, your engine, your money, do whatever you want too, but
never compare price with quality, "never. "FT"
