i bought this off ebay recently:


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...=8062458683&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWN:IT&rd=1

it's marketed toward the import crowd but it looked like a solid and well built item so i bid on it and won. i researched the model # online and found no bad reviews. my total price was just over $45. it comes with braided lines so it's a real bargain at $45. i was curious what it costs new so i googled it and found this:

... HOLY *****! almost $700 for an oil cooler??? and people are paying that amount - is that insane or what? it occurred to me, this must be one of the differences between the ricer crowd and the domestic scene. these teenagers and young adults get so caught up in that whole ignorant 'fast & furious" frame of mind and they get ROBBED left and right. i don't know what's worse, the people selling this stuff at such exaggerated prices, or the suckers buying it!?!?

I think the kids buying are definitely at fault. People can charge whatever they want for things, especially when you can get them other places. Its not like they are the electric company or something. Dumb kids:rolleyes:
 
its true, my friend only buys crap from AAP(reputable Supra shop), he refuses to go to autozone and get the same **** for 1/2 price, he paid 180 bucks for a tranny flush and fill.
